A 7-year-old dog weighing 3.9 kg visited the hospital with symptoms of inability to stand and quadriparesis. There were seizure symptoms 2 months before admission to the hospital, and the symptoms of stiffness and rigidity appeared. Radiographs showed normal vertebrae in cervical vertebral column. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) were performed immediately to diagnose vertebral lameness. As a result of the CT, it was possible to observe the fracture of the odontoid process of the axis, and the exact location of the damage was identified. The odontoid process was fractured and separated from the body of the 2^nd cervical vertebra (axis), and fragment of the process was observed inside the vertebral arch of the first cervical vertebra (atlas), and the body of the axis was lifted to the dorsal side. The MRI examination reflected the CT findings and confirmed severe spinal cord compression due to the fracture of the odontoid process. The patient was applied by neck brace and medical management including Mycophenolate mofetil administration was performed. The patient was able to move legs and tail after 2 weeks, and was able to voluntarily defecate, urinate and stand up after 4 weeks of administration.

본 연구는 목뼈의 치아돌기와 중쇠뼈에 골절의 선예한 영상을 얻기 위해 목뼈 팬톰과 방사선장치를 이용하여 검사한 영상을 얻은 후 방사선사 5명과 정형외과 레지던트 의사 3명에게 의뢰하여 심리적 ROC(Receiver,Operation,Characteristic) 주관적 평가 받는 결과 X선관을 다리쪽를 향하여 15°기울여 검사 시 29점을 얻어 높은 점수를 받았으며 객관적 평가 신호대잡음비(SNR)가 6.032점을 얻어 높은 점수를 받았다. 그리고 X선관을 머리쪽을 향하여 10°기울여 검사 시 33점으로 높은 점수를 받았으며 객관적 평가에서 신호대잡음(SNR)비 7.840점을 얻어 높은 점수를 받았다. 그리고 검사한 영상을 주관적, 객관적 통계적으로 평가한 결과 Cronbach Alpha 값이 0.791로 산출되었다. Cronbach Alpha 값이 0.7 이상이므로 신뢰도가 '매우좋음'으로 평가할 수 있었고 유의확률(p)이 0.042점으로 통계적으로 유의하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
