Ligament Laxity…Locate, Define, and Quantify
Our most precious commodity is time. I will demonstrate how you can generate a
quantification of ligament laxity damage that correlates with the AMA guidelines. You are
not just purchasing a Digitizing Software system (DXD Software), you are getting an
educational system that allows you to have attorneys, patients and juries comprehend
objective evidence and its effect on the human spine.
There is a huge need and opportunity for Objective evidence based reporting of injury for
comprehension of whatever side you represent. When clinical, forensic evidence of injury
or lack of injury is documented correctly, this allows the doctor to relay objectivity, not just
their opinion. The DXD software correlates with the AMA Guidelines 4th Edition, 5th Edition
(p. 378-79) and the 6th Edition (p. 578-79). The 6th Edition requires that objective evidence
be utilized when evaluating permanent impairment.
The DXD software uses X-ray image overlays technology and qualifies as "Evidence Based
Objective Impairment Rating". This software is designed to detect and evaluate ratable
impairment established by the AMA Guidelines. Translation motion is measured by
determining the anterior/posterior motion greater than 3.5 mm in the cervical spine which is
quantified on the flexion and/or extension radiographs. In addition, angular motion is
utilized which can not be greater than 11 degrees in the cervical flexion view.
