AICA Atlanta has state of the art imaging and diagnostic equipment that gives chiropractors insight into the extent of your injuries and helps them arrive at the best treatment plan for you. To get a correct diagnosis from the start we use X-rays. First, we look for injuries that require urgent attention and then move on to checking the delicate mechanics of the body so that we can put you on the path to recovery.
We use MRIs to obtain a complete three dimensional view of soft tissue, ligament, tendon, and spinal cord injuries. This technologically advanced tool allows us to go deeper than an initial x-ray.CT scans are valuable for fine-tuning the diagnostic process. We use a CT scan after initial x-rays and MRIs to confirm suspected hairline fractures and other bone injuries.
A CT scan takes multiple x-rays to create a three dimensional view of an affected area. Fluoroscopy allows us to see a continuous X-ray of the body. This real-time imaging verifies proper positioning of bones during in office procedures. We take this to the next level by observing your body in motion to ensure proper functioning of joints.
