Head and neck pain are often attributed to impaired mobility of the cervical spine. No established methods exist to examine such an impaired mobility objectively in patients with cervicogenic headache. Therefore, functional roentgenograms of the cervical spine in maximum ventral and dorsal flexion were analyzed in 15 patients with cervicogenic headache and in 18 controls. Qualitative radiologic evaluation showed no significant differences in either group. A computer-based technique to assess the mobility of the cervical spine demonstrated a statistically pronounced hypomobility of the craniocervical joints C0/C2 and an impaired overall mobility of the upper cervical spine (C0-C5) in the cervicogenic headache group. The most evident hypomotility was found in segment C0/C1. Interesting was, furthermore, a probably compensatory hypermotility in segment C6/C7. These findings did not correlate with the results of the qualitative radiologic evaluation.
