Objective To study the best projection position of cervical articular facet.Methods The cervical facet angle(FA) which was the joint angle between sagittal plane of body and the continual line of cervical facet was measured on cervical CT images in 63 healthy people.Results The FA was 70?~75?,during projection,the coronal plane of body in the form of 70?~75? to the film,this projection position was called cervical facet position.Conclusion Cervical facets and its interspace of joint can be showed clearly in the cervical facet position of projection.
