They were asymptomatic for neck pain, with no history of injury. The volunteers were scanned using an upright MRI scanner with a head-supported mass (army combat helmet). T1 and T2 sagittal and axial images were obtained. Measurements were performed by an engineer and a neurosurgeon. The cross-sectional areas of the sternocleidomastoid and multifidus muscles were measured at the inferior endplate in the sub-axial column, and the centroid angle and centroid radius were quantified. Differences in the morphology by gender and spinal level were analyzed using a repeated measures analysis of variance model, adjusted for multiple corrections.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>For females and males, the cross-sectional area of the sternocleidomastoid muscle ranged from 2.3 to 3.6\u2009cm2 and from 3.4 to 5.4\u2009cm2, the centroid radius ranged from 4.1 to 5.1\u2009cm and from 4.7 to 5.7\u2009cm, and the centroid angle ranged from 75\u00b0 to 131\u00b0 and from 4.8\u00b0 to 131.2\u00b0, respectively.
