The phantom test revealed that the pixel resolution and magnetic field inhomogenities had only a minor influence on the results. The comparisons of repeated measurements revealed a significant difference for the links Ci and Cii, indicating that the landmarks for determining the occipital and Ci/Cii joints were the most difficult to identify on the images.

- This paper presents kinematic data on the cervical and upper thoracic spine, based on measurements made on 20 Scandinavian healthy, female volunteers, aged 22-58 years (mean age 40.4).
