UNC MSK Course Day 4 Lab XR UNKNOWNS (for self study)
Anatomy? Odontoid Pedicle Vertebral body Facet joint Lateral mass Spinous process
Name of view? What passes through this opening?
Name of view? Oblique view of cervical spine. What passes through this opening? Right C5 nerve root
Name of View? Anatomy?
Name of View? Open mouth view Anatomy? Lateral mass of C1 Odontoid C1-2 facet jt.
Anatomy? Odontoid Lateral mass of C1
Anatomy? Vertebral body Pedicle Lamina Spinous process
Pathology? Osteoarthritis C-Spine Healthy disc Note osteophytes and disc space narrowing
Name of view? “Swimmer’s view” One arm is up to allow xray penetration of the junction of the lower C-spine and upper T-spine Humerus
Normal canal has more room for cord Pathology? Osteoarthritis again. Vertebral body osteophytes are encroaching on the spinal canal
Pathology? Osteoarthritis again. Vertebral body osteophytes are encroaching on the spinal canal and on the foramen for the nerve root
Note wide space between odontoid and lateral mass Pathology? Fracture of C1 with extrusion of lateral masses laterally Note lateral mass of C1 overhanging lateral mass of C2
Note wide space between odontoid and lateral mass Coronal plane CT Fracture of C1 with extrusion of lateral masses laterally Note lateral mass of C1 overhanging lateral mass of C2
Pathology? Fracture of C1 with extrusion of lateral masses laterally Fracture of ring of C1 which allows the lateral masses to slide laterally (there are other fractures in the ring but only one is visible on this CT slice).
Pathology? C4-5 anterior subluxation Note: Wide gap in C4-5 posterior elements, break in smooth alignment of anterior and posterior surfaces of vertebral bodies
Pathology? C4-5 anterior subluxation Note: Wide gap in C4-5 posterior elements, break in smooth alignment of anterior and posterior surfaces of vertebral bodies C4-5 interspinous ligament must be torn to produce this large gap
Pathology? C4-5 anterior subluxation Note: Facet subluxation Normal facet alignment
Pathology? Osteoporosis Note preservation of cortical bone with loss of internal cancellous bone from vertebrae. C5 & C6 have spinous process fractures

Anatomy? Vertebral body Pedicle Pars Intraarticularis Spinous process
Anatomy? Vertebral body Pedicle Facet joint Transverse process Lamina Spinous process
Abnormality? Lumbosacral transitional vertebra (on R it is like a sacral vertebra while on L it has a transverse process like a lumbar vertebra). The patient also has a fracture of the iliac wing.
Aorta Anatomy? Vertebral body Psoas Nerve root Dural Sac Facet joint
Pathology? Herniated Nucleus Pulposus (HNP) impinging on nerve root
