Bring the VMA by AOMSI Diagnostics into your practice with:
Zero out of pocket cost
Great for Personal Injury (when medically necessary)
AMA recommended CPT coding
No existing x-ray equipment needed
No footprint left at your office (we remove the VMA after scanning at your office)
Having the VMA by AOMSI Diagnostics can open a new revenue opportunity and provide world-class functional spinal imaging without any out of pocket cost.
It’s easy to bring the VMA to your practice.
WHO: Patients who have had an injury in cervical or lumbar spine.
WHAT: Dynamic weight-bearing motion study of the spine.
WHY: Build a bulletproof medical chart with objective proof of injury.
Less radiation than comparable x-rays, more sensitive and specific than flexion/extension films, and more accurate than anything else on the market.
You desire the most accurate information about your patients spine injuries.
Proven in peer reviewed journals to be reliable, repeatable, valid, accurate, and objective- our spinal diagnostic scan is a gold standard in the making.
To be clear, this is not an MRI, CT, X-Ray, or DMX. Our vertebral motion analysis is performed with CT flouroscopy and read objectively by a third party to provide information in a way that has never been seen before.
Accurate, precise measurements of disc heights, alignment, endplate angulation, and vertebral translation (a hallmark of alteration of motion segment integrity or ligament laxity) are all part of the AOMSI Spinal Diagnostics report.
More accurate than flexion/extension films
Deemed reliable and consistent at determining spinal instability by leading research journals
Has been used to overturn procedure denials
Provides objective data on facet injuries that can support the use of an RFA
Shows potential spinal injuries in a way MRI can only dream of
Vertebral Motion Analysis is an FDA approved facial recognition software that tracks vertebral bodies across video images making it possible to produce accurate and repeatable measurements of intervertebral motion as the spine bends.
The results are then translated to a video and objectively evaluated and produced into a color coded graphic report.

Dig into the research
Instability Redefined
Instability occurs when vertebral bodies slip. When this happens, nerves can be impinged, which can lead to symptoms, such as pain.
Some instability occurs only during spine bending. When bending triggers instability, it can be painful. However, if a patient avoids painful positions during testing, the doctor many never know instability is present.
Our testing gently guides patient bending to help achieve positions that result in the detection of instability.
Functional Spinal Diagnostics
Our spine scan is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive, painless examination that uses a C-Arm (fluoroscope) to capture video-type x-rays of your spine in motion.
These videos are then analyzed to produce spine motion measurements. This information helps your physician administer a more accurate and thorough diagnosis.
The Testing Experience
Our testing usually takes about 20 minutes. Please plan to arrive early and allow plenty of time to locate the testing facility.
The test involves the use of machines that assist with spine bending, by gently guiding you through a series of spine bending routines. While you are doing these bends, the technician will be capturing x-ray-type videos of your spine in motion.
These bending routines should not cause any discomfort, but if so there is a “stop” button you will be holding that can be pressed at any time to stop testing.
The vertebral motion analysis by AOMSI Diagnostics are exclusively analyzed for motion assessment of the cervical spine. Radiographic assessment beyond this motion analysis is not inferred or materially given. The information on this page, and all of AOMSIDiagnostics.com is purely information.
