A motion study is an advanced Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR) exam that evaluates how your joints and spine move in real time — not just how they look when still. This allows for a more accurate assessment of movement, function, and potential instability.
All studies use the same state-of-the-art DDR technology. The difference is what's included in the imaging depth, the reporting, and whether a clinical consultation is bundled.
