See the Motion Static Scans Miss. End the Guesswork.
Constant neck pain. Daily headaches. Dizziness. Tingling arms. That unsteady, wobbly feeling.
You've been told "nothing is wrong" long enough.
You've been told "nothing is wrong" long enough.
We reveal the hidden root cause with real-time video X-ray in motion using
Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX)
Understanding DMX
What is DMX?
Digital Motion X-ray (DMX) captures real-time video X-rays of your spine or joints while you move.
Unlike static MRI, CT, or regular X-rays that only show one frozen moment, DMX reveals excessive motion (instability) that often causes chronic pain, headaches, or dizziness.
Per AMA Guidelines: Instability is defined as >3.5 mm of abnormal movement during motion.

Patient Benefits
Why Patients Choose DMX
Find What Others Miss
If static scans say “nothing’s wrong” but pain persists after whiplash or accidents — DMX often uncovers the real cause.
Document Instability
Weight-bearing, natural movements. Quick 15-view scan with radiation levels comparable to traditional alternatives. Document your upper cervical instability for treatment planning or legal cases.
Clear Next Steps
A detailed report helps your physician plan targeted treatment and supports insurance or legal needs.
Self-Assessment
Is DMX Right for You?
Digital Motion X-ray is especially valuable when standard imaging has left you without answers. You may be a strong candidate if any of the following apply:
Persistent Pain After Injury
You still have neck pain, headaches, or dizziness weeks or months after a car accident, fall, or sports injury — even though your MRI or CT came back “normal.”
Whiplash or Suspected Ligament Injury
You were in a rear-end collision or experienced sudden acceleration/deceleration and suspect upper cervical instability (CCI or AAI).
Static Scans Missed the Problem
Traditional X-rays, CT, or MRI only capture a frozen moment. DMX shows how your joints actually move in real time.
Legal or Personal Injury Case
You need objective, measurable evidence of instability to support your claim and improve settlement outcomes.
Planning Advanced Treatment
Your chiropractor, neurologist, or upper cervical specialist wants clear documentation of ligament integrity before starting care.
Hypermobility or EDS
You have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome or generalized joint hypermobility and need to evaluate craniocervical stability.

Prove Your Instability
See the Motion Others Miss
Craniocervical Instability (CCI), Atlanto-axial instability (AAI), or general instability refers to excessive or abnormal motion in joints. This can result from whiplash, car accidents, or conditions like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS).
What is Instability (Technically)?
According to AMA guidelines (6th edition), instability is defined as movement of more than 3.5 mm during joint motion.
Unlike traditional static radiographs, Digital Motion X-ray (DMX) captures dynamic images during motion, allowing providers to visualize joint behavior through its entire range.
For Attorneys & PI Cases
Evidence in Court
Standard CT scans, X-rays, and MRIs only provide a snapshot of your body in a fixed position. A DMX captures the entire range of motion, transforming invisible injuries into objective, undeniable proof.
1
Detailed Measurements that document permanent injury.
2
Objective Evidence that strengthens your case against “subjective” claims.
3
Better Settlements by showing the real-world impact of the injury.
If you have a permanent injury, you deserve a better insurance settlement.
Tell your attorney to include a DMX to enhance your case.
For the Attorney
Auto Accident Case Study
Watch how dynamic imaging reveals the mechanics of an injury that static scans missed entirely.
For Healthcare Providers
Improve Spinal Instability Treatments with DMX
Accurate documentation is pivotal in tailoring upper cervical treatment plans — whether physical therapy, chiropractic care, injection therapies, or surgical intervention.
Pinpoint Dysfunction
Identify specific areas of ligament laxity and abnormal motion that static imaging often misses.
Refine Treatment Plans
Customize care from conservative therapies to targeted injections or stabilization procedures.
Monitor Progress
Repeat studies provide objective evidence of improvement and guide ongoing care decisions.
Avoid Ineffective Care
Reveal the true root cause so interventions are focused where they matter most.

Common Questions
How long does the scan take?
+
About 30–40 minutes total. You stay comfortable and only move as guided by our team.
Is it safe?
+
Yes. DMX uses lower radiation than video fluoroscopy and is comparable to a CT scan. We follow strict safety protocols.
Do I need a referral?
+
A referral is preferred. We accept referrals from DCs, NMDs, MDs, DOs, PTs, and other providers. Self-referrals are also welcome in Arizona (consultation/exam available at an additional cost).
Will insurance cover it?
+
Coverage varies by plan. We provide a complete superbill so you can submit for reimbursement. Many patients report receiving at least a few hundred dollars back. Medicaid and Medicare generally offer limited or no reimbursement.
