Dynamic measurements of cervical neural foramina during neck movements in asymptomatic young volunteers
Abstract
PurposeNeural foraminal dimensions are considered important in nerve root compression and development of cervical radiculopathy, but baseline data regarding their range during normal motion are not available. An in vivo study of cervical foraminal motion was conducted to characterize normal 3D dynamic foraminal dimensions during physiological neck motion and compare between different tasks and intervertebral segments.MethodsBiplane X-ray …
