Evaluation of the normal craniocervical junction craniometry in 137 asymptomatic patients

Int. j. morphol; 41 (1), 2023
SUMMARY: To our best knowledge, most of the craniometric studies on the normal craniocervical junction (CCJ), are still poorly studied and based on measurements taken from plain radiographs. In this study, the authors conducted a craniometric evaluation of the CCJ in a population without known CCJ abnorm...
