Cervical Spine Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of Measurements of the Cervical Spine in Adults With and Without Immobilisation
This is a prospective study aiming to assess the shape of the neck in adults. In addition the study will look at the shape of the neck in a spinal collar and the comfort while wearing a spinal collar.
The investigators aim to compare baseline scans of the neck in those aged 18yrs and older to a second neck scan where the participant is wearing a spinal collar. Experts will analyse the scans for measurements of angulations. In addition the study will collect demographic data and results from a validated patient questionnaire assessing comfort wearing the spinal collar. The hypothesis: 1. The shape of the neck is different when comparing the young and old populations 2. The spinal collar does not alter the shape of the spine 3. The spinal collars are uncomfortable in the elderly population ;
