Abstract

Upper cervical spine injuries are a source of diagnostic difficulty. While CT scanning is being used more widely in assessing the cervical spine, especially in unconscious patients, plain film radiology remains an important first point of assessment in the UK in less dramatic situations. We summarise relevant literature on plain film radiology of the upper cervical spine, and make some suggestions for structured evaluation of films under review.
