evaluate for c-spine injury after trauma The cervical vertebral bodies are appropriate in overall alignment and height. The cervical spinal cord has normal signal characteristics and overall morphology. There is straightening of the normal cervical curvature.At C2-3 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C3-4 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C4-5 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C5-6 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C6-7 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.At C7-T1 there is no significant compromise to the spinal canal or neural foramina.The vertebral artery flow voids appear to be intact.Minor opacity is present in the sphenoid sinus which is better seen on the recent CT of the maxillofacial bones.
1.Straightening of the normal cervical curvature could be related to muscle spasm or patient positioning. It is nonspecific.2.There is no evidence for spinal cord injury.
