Der Hals, lateinisch Collum oder Cervix, ist derjenige Körperteil von Menschen und Tieren, der Kopf und Rumpf miteinander verbindet. Er ist mit seinen verschiedenen zu erfüllenden Funktionen ein komplexes Gebilde, das auch eine gefährdete Engstelle darstellt. Die Zugehörigkeit zum Hals wird mit dem Adjektiv zervikal bezeichnet, z. B. beim Begriff Zervikalsyndrom. Allerdings kann sich zervikal auch auf andere anatomische Strukturen beziehen, siehe Cervix uteri (Gebärmutterhals).
