Enhances Patient Documentation
Digital Motion X-ray (DMX) and DynaROM technologies are powerful tools that allow you to provide clear, objective, and irrefutable documentation that can significantly increase the patient’s chance of securing an award that reflects the damages caused by their injury.
By documenting ligament damage, spinal instability, and muscle guarding, DMX and DynaROM studies address many of the common challenges in personal injury litigation including symptom exaggeration, your diagnosis, and disputes over the severity of injury.
Whether proving the severity of damage, justifying the need for ongoing care, or showing how the injury impacts the patient’s life, DMX and DynaROM are crucial assets in securing the compensation your patients deserve—often leading to a more favorable settlement without the need for trial.
As a personal injury provider, having solid, objective evidence of your patient’s injuries is essential. Dynamic Motion X-ray and DynaROM studies provide definitive, visual proof of ligament damage, spinal instability and functional abnormality that supports your patient’s subjective complaints and eliminates the uncertainty that often accompanies motor vehicle collision negotiation.
Definitive Proof of Whole Body Impairment
The pain a patient feels after a whiplash injury is caused by torn ligaments and uncontrollable muscle spasms (Guarding). Once torn, ligaments will never return to full function, and some degree of muscle guarding will become permanent. DMX and DynaROM demonstrate the damage and Whole Body Permanent Impairment Rating.
Strengthening the Case for Maximum Injury Award
DMX provides clear, objective evidence of spinal instability and permanent impairment, while DynaROM quantifies the injury’s impact on a range of motion and muscles. Together, they strengthen the patient’s case for a more accurate award by providing you with the data needed to form a prognosis that explains the long-term, life-altering consequences of the injury.
Increasing Claim Reserve Amounts
DMX and DynaROM provide definitive evidence of ligament damage, instability, and muscle guarding, which should prompt third parties to increase the reserve amount on your patient’s case. This helps secure a higher settlement offer and strengthens the case for a maximum injury award.
Counter Over-Treatment Arguments
DMX and DynaROM provide clear, objective evidence of ligament damage, instability, and functional limitations, which helps prevent arguments of over-treatment by justifying the necessity of your care.
Defend Claims of Symptoms Exaggeration
DMX and DynaROM provide clear, objective evidence of the severity of the injury, a counter to the claim of exaggeration, increasing the likelihood of a fair settlement based on factual data.
Overcoming "Just a Soft Tissue Injury" Claim
DMX and DynaROM work together to reveal the true extent and significance of soft tissue injuries, showing ligament damage, instability, and muscle guarding to overcome defense arguments that downplay the seriousness of injuries.
Addressing the "No Objective Findings" Argument
DMX and DynaROM provide indisputable, measurable evidence of injury that counters the defense’s argument of ‘no objective findings,’ making it easier to prove their injuries are legitimate and significant.
Counter Negative X-ray or MRI Results
X-rays and MRIs often fail to detect ligamentous damage or functional instability, even in cases of severe trauma. When these traditional imaging methods return negative results, it becomes harder to negotiate a fair settlement.
Defend the "Patient is Lying About Ongoing Complaints" Argument
DMX and DynaROM provide objective evidence of the injury, helping to eliminate claims of exaggeration. It proves the legitimacy of ongoing complaints and functional limitations.
Refuting "The Patient Sustained No Permanent Injury" Claims
DMX and DynaROM provide definitive evidence of permanent injury, showing ligament damage, instability, and muscle guarding, which are ratable as permanent by the AMA Guides, support the need for long-term treatment, and refutes the claim of temporary injury
Counter "There is No Need for Ongoing Palliative Care" Arguments
DMX and DynaROM provide undeniable evidence of ongoing injury and functional limitations, making a compelling case for continued palliative care.
