All these factors could potentially influence BME evaluation and CT numbers on VNCa series. The authors concluded that in obtunded adult blunt trauma patients, they conditionally recommended cervical collar removal after a negative high-quality C-spine CT scan result alone. 2000;215(Suppl):495-505. Seidenwurm D, Drayer BP, Anderson RE, et al.
