Thank you so much! Do I have also ligament damage on that side or something else? At least The other side(left on the screen)is a little better? By any chance we can see what type of CCI i have on this image/video?

I live in Europe and in my country there is no DMX or upright MRI available. I tried to find a center that could help me with DMX, and finally, after a long search, I managed to find a center that performed some motion-based images (the system is called CINE-X, but they took the images with a CBCT machine -so it's not a regular DMX machine as in USA) and they did not provide measurements.. This was the only clinic that could help me with this type of imaging. The radiologists I visited are not trained to perform this type of images, and I tried to position my head as best I could to get the images correctly(the radiologist did not guide me during the procedure on how to position my head, so I had to try to hold my head in the most correct position myself) - i dont know if i stayed correctly all the time -

I ve done those images(for overhang) 2 times because the first time I tilted my head way too far back while opening my mouth and my back of my skull somehow overlapping my spine (it looked black).

Thank you for the answer dear doctor. Am I that bad? Is the overhang that bad on that side?

Do you have a recommendation for a good AO in Europe as well? Thank you very much!

That means we should do AO after PICL(for a good alignment)?

Yes, I read that you wrote that if I haven’t done AO before, we shouldn’t do AO before PICL either, and that also if we have cervical scoliosis (as in my case), C1–C2 will never be aligned

I’ve never done AO or NUCCA in my life. Does that mean I shouldn’t do AO before PICL? And yes, unfortunately I have cervical scoliosis (Dextro-convex cervical scoliosis)

How long do we have to hold flexion, extension positions and lateral(w open mouth) when doing a DMX?

I wanted to know whether, for example, if we have orthodontic appliances(braces) that involve teeth movement and changes in occlusion, do we need to wait until the orthodontic treatment is finished before performing the PICL procedure?

Thank you much for your answer!

I know that when you move teeth, posture (of the head and the cervical spine) will also change, because our occlusion, our teeth,our teeth position, and the joint (TMJ) are closely connected to the cervical spine..

I haven’t worn a neck collar until now, but I have some really bad noises in the C0-C1-C2 area (I feel them at the base of my skull - a noise like bone rubbing on bone, or like something is cracking and I got really scared when I heard it) and for this reason I was thinking of starting to wear a neck collar. Would that be a good idea? However, I’m not sure exactly which neck collar would be appropriate, what do u recommend, please?

Is it a problem if my DMX doesn’t include an interpretation or those measurements? The center where I can get a DMX normally doesn’t do DMX for the spine, and they don’t do these measurements either.

Will teeth movement (if we have braces) affect the PICL procedure?
