Vertebral Motion Analysis (VMA)

ABOUT VMA

Updated Technology

Vertebral Motion Analysis (VMA) is an FDA-cleared system for assessing lumbar and cervical spinal motion. It is the first functional test that utilizes machine-controlled movement of the patient and computerized tracking to provide a real-time diagnostic assessment of spinal injuries and spinal instability—allowing for a more accurate diagnosis of back and neck injuries as compared to standard flexion/extension bending X-rays.

Improved Diagnostics

The Vertebral Motion Analysis (VMA) system creates a video X-ray of a patient’s spine in motion. Each second, eight images are taken to give a more precise view of a patient’s injuries. This allows for real-time discovery of injuries and/or instability in the neck or back that can be missed using traditional X-ray technology.

How VMA Works

Patient Testimonial

“Robin, Heather and Jessica were extremely knowledgeable, professional, welcoming and compassionate. Their ability to care for a patient combined with the clinics atmosphere allowed for a very positive experience.

I cannot express my gratitude for all involved. Having this imaging study done has provided invaluable information with regard to my condition and future healthcare.”
