Planning
For suspected osteoarthritis of the cervical spine, recommended projections are:
- Posteroanterior
- Lateral
- 45° left and right oblique
Interpretation
On projectional radiography ("X-ray") of the cervical spine, the following radiographic system is recommended in terms of interobserver reliability:[1]
| I |
|
|---|---|
| II |
|
| III |
|
| IV |
|
Report
It is acceptable to simplify the severity of spondylosisto mild (Kellgren grades I to II), moderate (Kellgren grade III) and severe (Kellgren grade IV).
