Thank you so much.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Sven Petersson: 'cervical vertebrae' is right, 'cervical spine' is not. - Addendum: No, 'cervical spine' is wrong. Try 'Two of the "servikaalwerwels" were fused.' and you'll see my point!

  -> the vertebrae in the neck are also called the "cervical spine"//try "CT scan of the cervical spine" - context is all - this is what you see on radiology requests and reports
