Question 23

obliquis capitus superior o i

Answer 23

transverse process of atlas - point between sup and inf nuchal line

transverse process axis - transverse process atlas

Question 25

where does the posterior ramus of c1 exit, and what is its significance?

Answer 25

between base of skull and atlas, and it innervates the sub occipital triangle

Question 26

what blood supply is near the occipital triangle, how is it a concern for manipulations?

Answer 26

vertebral artery, wraps around transverse process of c1 before foramen magnum, a translation of c1 could cause stroke.

Answer 27

goes through traps, also innervates scalp ie cervicogenic headaches after occipital triangle
