Xray Cervical Spine Flexion / Extension

Alternate Name :

Cervical Spine X-ray, xray neck, Cervical Spine test, xray Cervical Spine

An X-ray Cervical Spine Flexion / Extension is a diagnostic imaging test that provides detailed images of the cervical spine (neck) from the side (lateral) view, with flexion and extension positions. It helps in evaluating conditions such as instability, degenerative changes, or trauma in the cervical vertebrae.

Preparation :

  1. Clothing: Wear comfortable clothing without any metal accessories such as zippers, buttons, or jewelry. You may be asked to change into a gown provided by the lab for the X-ray procedure.

  2. Accessories: Remove any metal objects, such as jewelry, belts, watches, or piercings, as they can interfere with the X-ray imaging.

  3. Inform the Technicians: Inform the X-ray technicians if you are pregnant or suspect you might be pregnant. It's essential to take necessary precautions to protect the fetus from radiation exposure.

  4. Previous X-rays: If you have any previous X-ray images or reports relevant to the current examination, bring them along for comparison.

  5. Medical History: Provide your complete medical history, including any past surgeries, implants, or medical conditions, to ensure accurate interpretation of the X-ray results.

  6. Follow Instructions: Follow all instructions given by the X-ray technicians carefully to ensure the success of the procedure and obtain clear images.

  7. Relax: Stay relaxed and calm during the X-ray procedure. The technicians will guide you through the process and ensure your comfort throughout the examination.

By following these preparation notes, you can help ensure a smooth and successful X-ray testing experience at our lab.

Why it is done :

  • Assessing the mobility and stability of the cervical vertebrae for abnormalities such as instability, subluxations, or dislocations.
  • Detecting degenerative changes such as osteoarthritis, disc herniation, or spinal stenosis affecting the cervical spine.
  • Evaluating symptoms such as neck pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms or hands during different positions for proper diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • What to bring :

    When coming in for your Xray test, remember to bring:

    • Your Government photo ID like Aadhaar card, Driving License or PAN card.
    • Any previous X-ray films or reports for comparison, if available.

    • You will be asked to stand against a specialized X-ray machine or lie down on a table, depending on the position needed for imaging.
    • The technologist will position you and may place a lead apron over areas not being imaged to shield them from radiation.
