Tables Flexion angle, sc/dcc/vcc RxM and CTM, F and N, inter- and intravertebral ratios

Myelography was performed in flexion and neutral position in unaffected Warmbloods. The cranial aspect of the cervical spine (C3-C4) was in the focus of this research. Intra- and interverterbral sagittal ratios were calculated. Heights of the contrast columns and diameter of the spinal cord were measured at 6 defined inter- and intravertebral locations. The study population was examined using CT in flexion and neutral position of the cervical spine. The above mentioned parameters were calculated. Intra- and intervertebral ratios were compared between modalities. Heights of the contrast columns and diameter of the spinal cord were compared within the same modalities but between the different positions of the cervical spine.
