A comparison study between the NEXUS Criteria and the Canadian C-Spine Rule suggested that the NEXUS criteria are less sensitive (90.7 vs. 95-99%), though there remains some controversy over the results and methodology. References Hoffman et al. Validity of a set of clinical criteria to rule...

Background: The Canadian C-Spine (cervical-spine) Rule (CCR) and the National Emergency X-Radiography Utilization Study (NEXUS) Low-Risk Criteria (NLC) are decision rules to guide the use of cervical-spine radiography in patients with trauma. It is unclear how the two decision rules compare ...
The sensitivities of NEXUS criteria, Canadian C-spine, and modified Canadian C-spine rule were 93.4%, 100.0% and 100.0%, respectively. Conclusions: The modified Canadian C-spine rule has fewer variables than the original Canadian C-spine rule and is entirely based on physical examination, which...

The question I think becomes, "If the C0-C1-C2 complex is studied on a particular person and the criteria for 'instability' are not met, does this mean that the person is considered to be 'within normal limits'" and therefore there is nothing wrong with them? Maybe even smaller ...
