Background: This study aimed to analyze the three-dimensional cervical motion characteristics in patients who underwent posterior atlantoaxial fusion surgeries using cone beam computed tomography and 3D3D registration technology.
Methods: The study selected 20 patients who underwent posterior atlantoaxial fusion surgery and 20 healthy people as the control group. All subjects underwent cone beam computed tomography scans of the occipital and cervical spine in 7 different functional positions, then 3D3D registration of Occipital-C7 was performed at each functional position to calculate the motion characteristics of each segment.

Objective: The type of atlantodental space tissue in patients with atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD) can help doctors understand the possibility of reduction before surgery. However, relevant research on this topic is lacking. This study aimed to summarize cases of AAD, classified based on the atlantodental space using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and preliminarily explore its impact on the degree of reduction.
