Which of the following positions will best demonstrate the cervical intervertebral foramina?

The correct answer is (A). The cervical intervertebral foramina form a 45-degree angle with the MSP and, therefore, are well visualized in a 45-degree oblique position.

The anteroposterior (AP) cervical spine projection is part of the cervical spine series.

How is the patient positioned to demonstrate the left intervertebral foramina of the cervical vertebrae?

How is the patient positioned to demonstrate the left intervertebral foramina of the cervical vertebrae? The left intervertebral foramina may be demonstrated by a 45-degree LAO or RPO position.
