3D motion reliability of occipital condylar glide testing: From concept to kinematics evidence

This study shows specific motion patterns involving extension and lateral bending of the occipitoatlantal level for anterior condylar glide test. In addition, condyle position variation demonstrated coupled components in forward and heterolateral directions. However, task seems not to be side specific. In general, reliability of 3D motion components showed good intra-operator agreement and limited inter-operator agreement.
