Abstract
To evaluate which cervical level is the most appropriate level to measure occipitocervical inclination (OCI). Sixty-two patients with multi-positional MRI: 24 males and 38 females, who had cervical lordosis and had a disk degeneration grade of 3 or less were included. We measured patient’s OCI at C3, C4, and C5, occipitocervical angle (OCA), occipitocervical distance (OCD), C2–7 angle, and cervical sagittal vertical axis (cSVA) in neutral,...
