During this webinar, we will review the bone and soft tissue anatomy of the cervical spine and associated neurovascular structures. Tips and tricks for obtaining diagnostic radiographs in both an ambulatory and hospital environment will be discussed, alongside guidance on making the most of your generator. Techniques for ultrasound of the cervical spine will be covered, before examining common pathologies on both radiographs and ultrasound images. Lastly, we will look at the feasibility of computed tomography (CT) of the cervical spine, which cases benefit from CT and what additional information CT provides.
