Investigations

Diversity in investigation procedures is accessible today to sustain and authenticate the clinical analysis options. It must be considered though that verdict must only be sustained by the investigation procedures; and typically are not based upon traditional investigations. The significance in ordering these investigations; it should be reserved in mind while we are asking the patient to experience them.

Our Spinalogy method highly bases upon the order in doing less disruption in daily routine and negligible interference in body of patients. At our clinic, these investigations and their significance are properly discussed with the patients; if you are looking for the treatment procedure to undergo. The investigations which are carried out, gets properly designed with their services, so as to offer accurate and obvious information regarding your condition. Apart from the procedure of routine tests which are typically offered by the other conventional centers, we like to offer effective, contemporary and modified investigations for joints and spine. These investigations are typically applied with the patients; either with tie ups and joint hosts or in house with our recognized diagnostic hubs.

Postural assessment

Posture is the attributive manner in bearing the stature of one’s body. A body posture highly represents with the arrangement of our body parts and joints attained in diverse positions like sitting, sleeping, dancing, and standing, etc. Postural evaluation hence offers several of the information about its distortions, alignment and deviations in it. A standard posture offers utmost constancy in an exacting position and so it consumes a least number of energy in maintaining that position. With a divergence from the standard posture, the quantity of energy requisite in maintaining that situation increases much more; this makes the involved muscles to reach the options of fatigue, which is capable enough to give rise to pain. The diverse ligamentous supports also gets strained with this practice.

Postural evaluation is prepared while the patient is in the standing position. The patient is made to stand in a comfortable way with which he is used to that he is used to, against the examiner line orientation. The plumb line is an option made with a weighted cord line, which is absolutely straight. Body structures and its arrangements are typically studied with this plumb line. At our Spinalogy health center, we also employ several images to article this arrangement; so as to add it to the account of your evaluation. The chief body sections marked with plumb line procedure; done to notice the alignment options in a better way. The arrangement of the levels of the PSIS and the ASIS, spinal curvatures, are closely assessed in a specific way.

Back strength analysis

Back muscle strength is an enormously significant factor to conclude spine pain. The strength testing of back muscles in our centre; it varies in the procedure of testing from the extremity of muscles. Moreover, the steady job of back muscles is an important factor which is capable to conclude back pain- is highly analyzed. This analyzing procedure includes the testing of the muscle strengths of neck and back.

The back power analysis is typically done with some of the specialized tests which are even done manually- which is an important section in the detailed evaluation of our clinic. It is usually done by via pressure pointer system- an instrument which is typically alike to the BP monitoring gadget. The cuff of this gadget is sited at your back and exaggerated to the base level. Following this procedure, specific commands are subjected to trigger the hub of muscles; an option which produces a budge with the pressure of its hit. The dissimilarity in the hitting pressure is recorded as the option to calculate the muscle strength.

Laboratory testing

Pertinent laboratory tests are typically carried out if it is required in the assessment procedure. These procedures are done to institute the analysis and discover if there is any possibility of other contraindications or risks to continue the treatment. The laboratory reports offer a wide overview about the body functions and processes; hence it gives an apparent considerate about treatment progression in the patient’s body- the reports are provided to the same in the clinic itself.

Radiography evaluations:

• X Rays
  X ray provides an imminent image of the bony tissues for pathologies. These can be decisive in milieu with osteoporotic or arthritic changes in the bone. It also provides the considerate about joint conditions in the spine. The surface joints experience several changes with spondylosis and any other diseases- which can be visualized with X- ray’s films.
  Our centre facilitates with X ray procedures in house- which are efficient and save your time to visit any other diagnostic center.
• CT scan
  The computer supported tomography scanning procedures are used in order to provide segmented slices or views for the area scanned. The CAT or CT scan offers a detailed analysis of the spot. The CT scan uses computers generate thickness, taking record with recurring radio scans of tissue- which is recurrent after specified intervals. The CT scan fundamentally generates a divided view of the tissues- so as to get a better understanding about its impact. CT scans are typically used to alleviate the trauma acute conditions where injury is suspected with specific condition. Deformities are also recognized in a better way through the CT scans.
  CT scans even provide details which get un- revealed X-ray reports dealing with bony tissues. At our Spinalogy clinic, we refer the patients for CT scan investigation procedure; if there is requirement for the same option of imaging- with the details discussed with the patients.
• MRI scans
  The MRI or magnetic resonance imaging technique is known for its techniques which are comparatively modern in the section of therapeutic imaging. Like CT scan, it is typically in use to envisage the thorough internal arrangement of the body. The advantage is that it provides greater distinction amid diverse tissues than CT.
  It uses magnetic fields to expand the images based upon the arrangement of hydrogen ions in body tissues. The MRI scan provides better visualization of the injuries or the appearance of the soft tissues in the body. At our Spinalogy clinic, MRI scanning options are typically advised after a proper discussion with patient regarding its relevancy.
