Spine X-ray in Dnipro

Spine X-ray in Dnipro: prices — from 500 UAH

X-ray of the cervicothoracic spine is a method of visualizing the ossa of the upper spine. The cervical spine is represented by seven vertebrae, while the thoracic spine consists of 12 vertebrae. All vertebrae in the cervical and thoracic regions are separated from each other by intervertebral discs. 

Indications for X-ray of the cervicothoracic spine

Diseases of the cervical and thoracic spine can be traumatic, inflammatory, and degenerative in nature. Radiography of the cervicothoracic spine is indicated when the following symptoms occur:

  • neck pain at rest and during movement;
  •  back and chest pain;
  •  headache and dizziness;
  •  crunching during head movements;
  •  numbness of upper extremities (arms);
  •  decrease in the range of neck movements;
  •  changes in the configuration of upper parts of the spinal column (appearance of unnatural curvatures of the spine in the anteroposterior or lateral direction).

The procedure of X-ray of the cervicothoracic spine at “ON Clinic Dnipro”

Radiography is done by a radiologist. X-ray of the cervical and thoracic spine is taken in two projections: frontal and lateral. There are also special techniques for taking the X-ray of the cervical spine:

  • spot X-ray of an individual cervical vertebra;
  • functional X-ray tests;
  • X-ray of the cervical spine through an open mouth.

Functional X-ray of the cervical spine is obtaining of X-ray images of the cervical vertebrae at different angles of the head. Radiography is performed with the neck bent and unbent as much as possible. For this, a patient is first asked to press his/her chin to the chest as much as possible, and then throw the head back. Functional tests provide additional information about the condition of the cervical spine.
