Why Are X-Rays and MRI Reviews Important?

Chiropractic care is most effective when it is based on a clear understanding of what’s happening inside your body. X-rays and MRIs allow us to see what’s causing pain and dysfunction, whether it’s a misaligned vertebra, a herniated disc, or joint degeneration. By reviewing these images, we can make informed decisions on the best course of action for your treatment.

Benefits of X-Rays and MRI Reviews

  • Accurate Diagnosis: Imaging provides clear and precise information about the condition of your spine and joints, leading to a more accurate diagnosis.
  • Personalized Treatment Plans: Based on the results of your X-ray or MRI, we can create a treatment plan that is customized to your specific needs.
  • Early Detection: X-rays and MRIs can reveal underlying issues that may not yet be causing pain but could lead to problems in the future.
  • Non-Invasive: Imaging is a non-invasive way to gain detailed information about your musculoskeletal system.

Conditions Diagnosed with X-Rays and MRI Reviews

X-rays and MRI reviews at Seland Chiropractic can help diagnose a variety of conditions, including:

  • Herniated or Bulging Discs: MRI scans provide detailed images of the discs, helping to detect disc injuries that cause back pain and sciatica.
  • Spinal Misalignment: X-rays show misaligned vertebrae, which can lead to neck pain, back pain, and nerve issues.
  • Degenerative Disc Disease: MRI scans reveal wear and tear in the discs, helping us manage conditions like arthritis and spinal degeneration.

At Seland Chiropractic, we use digital X-rays and work with trusted radiologists to review MRI scans. Here’s what to expect:

  1. Consultation: During your initial consultation, we will assess your symptoms and determine whether an X-ray or MRI is necessary to help with diagnosis.

  3. Review and Diagnosis: Once the imaging is complete, we will thoroughly review the results, explain the findings to you, and develop a personalized treatment plan based on the diagnosis.
  4. Treatment Plan: Your chiropractic care will be tailored to address the specific issues identified in your X-rays or MRI, ensuring the most effective approach to healing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About X-Rays and MRI Reviews

Do I need an MRI or X-ray for chiropractic treatment?
Not every patient will need an X-ray or MRI. We will determine if imaging is necessary based on your symptoms and the results of your initial examination.

What’s the difference between X-rays and MRIs?
X-rays are used to visualize bones and detect structural issues like fractures or misalignments. MRI scans provide detailed images of soft tissues, such as discs, muscles, and nerves, making them ideal for diagnosing disc injuries or nerve compression.

Are X-rays and MRIs safe?
Yes, X-rays and MRIs are both safe. Digital X-rays use very low doses of radiation, while MRI scans do not use radiation at all.

Will insurance cover my X-rays or MRI?
Many insurance plans cover X-rays and MRIs when they are deemed necessary for diagnosis. We can help you check with your insurance provider to determine your coverage.
