Digital Motion X-ray: Advanced Technology to Detect Ligament Injuries and Understand Spinal Biomechanics.
Dr. Alfonso and Dr. Berry specialize in scoliosis, ligament instability, neuropathy, disc herniations, and structural correction chiropractic without bracing, drugs, or surgery. In order to allow us to better handle and understand the scoliotic spine and ligament injuries, We have purchased and begun to use and implement a digital motion x-ray (DMX) machine. DMX is a new type of fluoro-based x-ray system, coupled with new digital and optic technology, allowing clinicians to view the spine in real-time motion at 30 x-rays per second. The DMX system can produce 2,700 x-ray images with the same amount of radiation as a standard x-ray machine, which gives you 6 static x-rays. DMX exposes patients to far lower radiation levels than traditional video fluoroscopy. Also, due to the progress made in computer imaging over the last decade, DMX images are far clearer and more detailed.
Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX) uses advanced technology to detect ligament injuries that could never be seen before because of the lack of motion. Static x-rays, MRI and CT commonly miss injuries because you don’t or can’t

move for the exam. The symptoms of a cervical disc injury are usually numbness and tingling in the upper extremities. The upper 30% of the spine and posterior aspect of the spine contain no discs, just ligaments. Headaches and posterior neck pain are commonly caused by stretched ligament injuries which cannot be detected by MRI.
Digital motion x-ray is just the opposite. It can find injuries that are evident only when you move. If your pain increases with movement, common sense tells you that your injuries should be examined “in motion”. DMX can reveal these sub-failure ligament injuries allowing the doctor to specifically determine which ligaments are injured.
Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX) helps doctors make a fast and accurate diagnosis for patients with ligament damage. In addition, Digital Motion X-Ray allows doctors to:
Make the most informed and reliable diagnosis
Provide proof of injury
Increase patient compliance and understanding
Detect ligament injuries objectively
Substantiate patient care
At Sunset Chiropractic & Wellness nonsurgical drugless spinal and extremity treatments are selected and designed from a compressive consultation, health history, physical examination (orthopedic/neurological testing), digital posture analysis, weight bearing sitting x-rays using 41 measurements and 23 angles analyzing and comparing the spine to a mathematical model. In specific cases additional diagnostics could be ordered (Digital Motion X-rays/CTs/MRIs) to obtain or confirm a diagnosis.
Our team goes beyond conventional medicine by offering services and techniques which can relieve symptoms while at the same time addressing and resolving the underlying causes of your particular dysfunction.
Sunset Chiropractic and Wellness’s Structural Correction Chiropractic Care rehabilitate the damaged spine/extremities and its damaged structures (muscles, ligaments, fascia, discs, bone, and nerves) improving the structure and functions, reducing and removing the pain, and improving overall quality of life.
