Neck Extender/Flexor to Facilitate Fluoroscopic Examination

Project Overview

Our project involves refining a motorized neck positioner for a fluoroscopy examination. The device must extend and flex the neck and not interfere with lateral fluoroscopic radiographic imaging. The goal of the device is to provide continuous rotation of the neck while the relative motion between vertebrae is monitored by fluoroscopy. This device will facilitate the diagnosis of spinal instability and aid in diagnosing ligament injuries.
