In particular, the complex development of the spine, particularly the cervical spine, merits attention to aid in recognition of spinal normal anatomic variants. Familiarity with the appearance of the cervical and thoracic spinal vertebrae is critical to providing accurate imaging interpretation. Imaging of the cervical spine is a routine part of a radiology practice.
