The successful management of cervical deformity relies on proper assessment. The symptoms and signs are as essential a part of the assessment as the radiological parameters. In this chapter, the details of the patient history and examination are considered, alongside the radiological parameters to be evaluated. Specific considerations for the cranio-cervical junction, subaxial spine, and cervico-thoracic junction are detailed and the targets for surgical correction defined.
