Okay Rowley,
I'll step up to the plate first and embarrass myself.
Three areas I'd want to look more closely at...
1) The intervertebral gap between C6 and C7 looks a bit wide anteriorly, probably normal but ???
2) There is a lucent line running in the posterior of C1
3) Maybe it's just me but I'm having difficulty seeing the peg properly. In fact that whole C1 area seems a bit 'fuzzy'.
Obviously there is the whole C7/T1 issue but these are the bits I would want to examine/image more closely.
Simon

Subject: An xray for discussion
I have posted an Xray on my website you might like to review.
http://www.emergencyunit.com/images/cspine.jpg
It is quite large, to warn those on dial-up, but that is to keep detail.
I'd be interested to hear people's views on it. There is very little
clinical detail needed - agitated young male with no neck pain and no
neurology. Unclear history of a possibly substantial fall.
Is it normal?
/Rowley./
