DOI: 10.1097/bsd.0000000000001307
Abstract: Study Design: Retrospective radiologic analysis. Objective: The aim was to investigate if lateral flexion-extension radiographs identify additional cases of degenerative cervical spondylolisthesis (DCS) that would be missed by obtaining solely neutral upright radiographs, and determine… read more here.
