A schematic cross-section of a normal intervertebral disc (IVD) shows a gelatinous nucleus pulposus (NP) centrally, surrounded by concentric lamellae of the annulus fibrosus (AF) composed of fibrocartilage. In the biological hierarchy, this fibrocartilaginous joint lies between vertebral bodies within the vertebral column, part of the axial skeleton. In anatomy and biomechanics, the disc distributes axial loads, permits spinal flexibility, and provides shock absorption within each motion segment.
