Cervical spine: generally it means the normal curvature in the c-spine is not there 9usually from spasm) there is arthritis and bone spurs in the c-spine and possible calcification of the ligamentum nuchae the ligament that runs from the base of the skull down the back of the neck. I hope that helped.
