This document provides guidance on evaluating head CT scans and cervical spine x-rays. For head CTs, the key things to examine are midline structures, symmetry between sides, basal cisterns, and ventricles. Cervical spine x-rays should be evaluated for fractures, alignment of vertebrae, and abnormal spacing between vertebrae. CT and MRI may also be useful to identify ligament or bone marrow injuries in the cervical spine. The document emphasizes the importance of systematic evaluation of standard imaging views of the head and neck for trauma.
