Digital X-Rays in Lakewood, CO

Biomechanical digital radiography is a technique used to take x-rays of a patient’s body in its perceived “neutral” state without outside influence. This technique is more efficient than normal x-rays at diagnosing biomechanical problems in the spine.

Many other imaging centers utilize standard medical radiographs, which are useful in the diagnosis of fractures, tumors, dislocations, or infections (relatively rare problems). However, standard medical radiographs are not meant for diagnosing biomechanical problems. The misuse of this type of imaging frequently results in misdiagnosis and ineffective or destructive treatment, mostly because medical radiography procedures often involve manipulating the patient’s posture and taking images with the patient lying in a recumbent position.
