The list of possible cervical spine injuries that may result from a given impact are quite numerous. When faced with the decision to choose a specific injury to treat, the choice can be quite complex. By mathematically modeling an impact in a three dimensional plan and describing specific impact criteria, the list of possible injuries can be drastically shortened. This study aims to model the orientation of an impact vector using a guided user interface, GUI. The resulting impact vector is compared with known injuries resulting from such a vector and outside criteria such as injury type, and radiograph results. From this comparison, an extensive list of possible injuries can be narrowed down to a few possibilities.
