CERVICAL SPINE

The cervical spine is the first segement in the spinal cord consisting of the vertebrae C1-C7. It is the first segment of the vertebral column and serves as the attachment site for many of the head and neck musculature. Injury to this segment can result in permanent paralysis or death if not properly assessed.
