The full possible Range Of Motion in the spine from fully extended to fully flexed is 250o (140o extension and 110o flexion) - however the only way to get full 140o extension is flip over backwards so your stomach is facing upwards and your hands and feet are both on the floor (make sense?), however the lumber spine only accounts for 95o of this motion (35o extension and 60o extension). The full possible lateral ROM the spine is 75o each way, however the lumber spine only accounts 20o of this.
Most spinal injuries occur in the cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back) regions of the spine. The cervical spine is particularly vulnerable due to its mobility and range of motion, while the lumbar spine bears a lot of weight and can be prone to injury from lifting or twisting motions.
The type of spine with 7 bones is referred to as the cervical spine. It is made up of the first seven vertebrae in the spine, starting from the base of the skull to the top of the thoracic spine.
The cervical spine, or neck region of the vertebral column, is capable of the most movement due to its anatomy and structure. It consists of seven vertebrae that allow for a wide range of motion, including flexion, extension, rotation, and lateral bending.
The atlas bone, also known as C1, is responsible for the nodding motion of the head in a "yes" gesture. It is the topmost vertebra in the spine and allows for the unique range of motion needed for this movement.
Bone marrow edema in the cervical spine refers to a condition where there is swelling or fluid accumulation in the bone marrow of the cervical vertebrae. This can be caused by various factors such as injury, inflammation, or degenerative changes. It can lead to pain, stiffness, and decreased range of motion in the neck.
c-spine means cervical spine, and cervical means neck.

No.The cervical spine is in the neck and is above the lumbar spine, which is in the low back. Because we reference things from anatomical position, which is standing upright, and because the term "inferior" is used to denote things that are below, that statement would be incorrect. Therefore, we could correctly say the cervical spine is superior, or rostral, to the lumbar spine. We could also say that the lumbar spine is inferior, or caudal, to the cervical spine.
There are 7 bones in the cervical spine, which are numbered C1 to C7. These bones provide support to the skull and allow for movements of the head and neck.
The cervical spine is made up of seven cervical vertebrae. These are numbered(C1-C7) and are the smallest of the true vertebrae. The third through sixth cervical vertebrae have characteristics in common. The first, second, and seventh are considered special cervical vertebrae, and have different characteristics.

There are 7 cervical vertebrae in the human spine.
