A clinician adjusts a cranial halo attached to an overhead pulley-and-weight system on a patient seated in a wheelchair. The device, an orthopedic traction apparatus used in spine surgery and rehabilitation, applies axial force to the skull via fixation pins to align the cervical spine (C-spine) within the vertebral column of the axial skeleton. In orthopedics and neurosurgery, halo gravity traction (HGT) facilitates gradual deformity correction or stabilization and neural decompression. The anatomical site is the skull and upper cervical region. Species: Homo sapiens (human).
