Look at specific parts of each vertebra and the disc spaces as far caudally as the image allows, compare frontal and lateral projections. Some check list items to watch for are: height of vertebral bodies and disc spaces, integrity of cortical margins around the bodies, pedicles, and lamina, presence of any lytic or sclerotic areas, normal spacing of synovial joints, versus narrowing or sclerosis.
