HOW CAN I DETERMINE THE EXTENT OF MY INJURIES?

To determine the extent of your injuries and prevent their painful effects have an in-depth evaluation and consultation with a chiropractor and accident and personal injury specialist. Preferably, it should be one that's specially trained in diagnosing and treating spinal problems as a result of an automobile accident and can explain how much damage your body has sustained, as well as recommend what treatment he or she feels would be necessary and for how long.
A normal evaluation includes a complete examination including orthopedic and chiropractic testing, x-rays, range of motion and muscle strength tests. If necessary, nerve conduction tests and diagnostic ultrasound tests are also performed to provide the most comprehensive diagnosis available.

If necessary, other diagnostic tests such as MRI and CAT Scans are performed as needed.
