To answer your questions:
1. The gap means that the elements between the two structures are likely being stretched
2. Yes, occipital refers to lower back of head, atlanto refers to the atlas which is C1, the top neck bone, the bone the head sits on.
3. I asked if you’d been in an accident because with EDS the gap is generally more uniform and usually less obvious.
4 Just search online for ‘missed craniocervical injuries’ and you will see that it is commonly missed!!!I was wondering if it makes a difference as my MRI was upright?
