The Citow Cervical Visualizer (CCV) helps to visualize the lower cervical spine by transiently pushing the shoulders out of the way. This method ensures a clearer picture on x-ray films. The CCV makes methods of the past obsolete. No more taping the shoulders down causing potential shoulder or nerve damage. No more tying gauze straps around the wrists causing possible I.V. dislodging and dislocation of the shoulders. Finally there is a solution that ensures accuracy while alleviating all of the previous risks. It is safe, easy to use and radiolucent. The difference speaks for itself X-ray without the CCV X-ray with the CCV in place. Easy and Accurate The CCV can be easily adjusted to securely fit the shoulders. The physician places the arches of the CCV on top of the shoulders, holds on to both handles and pushes toward the feet. This allows the shoulders to move down offering an optimum image of the cervical spine.
