Abstract | | | Cited by 0 Articles | Aim: We aimed to present some morphometric values of the cervical vertebra in our study.
Materials and Methods: The study was performed on 100 individuals (50 females-50 males) aged between 20 and 80 years with multidetector computed tomography and cervical vertebrae. Parameters are measured and recorded in our work; sagittal diameter of foramen vertebra, transverse diameter of foramen vertebra, sagittal diameter of corpus vertebra, transverse diameter of corpus vertebra and corpus vertebra height.
Findings: We investigated whether there was a statistically significant difference between men and women. Sagittal diameter of corpus vertebra and transverse diameter of corpus vertebra values were significantly higher in all cervical vertebrae than in females (p
