Schedule Your Strategy Session
A strategy session is the next step in determining whether motion-based diagnosis belongs in your practice and how it would be implemented clinically and operationally.
During this session, we evaluate clinical fit, workflow integration, and diagnostic goals to determine whether the VMA® is the right solution for your practice.
Answers made easy, just for you!

MRI and standard X-ray evaluate the spine at rest often in a non–weight-bearing, supine position. The VMA® analyzes spinal motion while the patient is upright and weight-bearing, capturing how the spine actually functions in daily life. This allows ligament instability to be identified and quantified in a way static or non–weight-bearing imaging cannot reliably achieve.
Yes. The VMA® is designed to integrate into established clinical workflows with minimal disruption. Our team supports setup, reporting, and interpretation so the diagnostic process complements not complicates your practice.
All VMA® studies are independently reviewed and signed by board-certified radiologists. This separation ensures clinical credibility and supports use in treatment planning, insurance review, and med-legal contexts.
The strategy session is a focused, professional discussion to determine clinical fit, diagnostic goals, and operational considerations. It’s designed to clarify whether motion-based diagnosis is appropriate for your practice before any decisions are made.
