Palpate the transverse process of C6 (Chassaignacâs tubercle) at the level of the cricoid cartilage. Palpate the mastoid process behind the ear. Draw a line between the mastoid process and Chassaignacâs tubercle. The trans-verse processes of the other cervical vertebrae will lie on or near this line. The first palpable transverse process below the mastoid process is C2. Palpate and mark the transverse processes of C2 to C4 (the C4 transverse process lies approxi-mately at the level of the mandible).
