I'm curious about this... do you know if the neurosurgeon meant C0-C1 are rarely written about in reports (only abnormalities mentioned), or that C0-C1 aren't really looked at while reading standard scans?
My sense was the latter. My vertebrae were labeled on the scan, starting at C2, though C1 and C0 (and higher) were clearly visible. And my written report went through each joint, starting at C2-C3 and going down into the thoracic spine. You might get different results if you specify that you want that section looked at as well, though I’m not sure; my guess would be most radiologists don’t know too much about that area since they don’t typically include it.
