How Digital Motion X-Ray Helps Confirm Ligament Instability Before Stem Cell Therapy

Why Stem Cell Therapy Needs a Functional Diagnosis First – doctor reviewing spinal images with a patient experiencing neck pain during a medical consultation.

You’re considering stem cell therapy for chronic neck pain, whiplash, or post-concussion symptoms but how do you know where the problem really is?

The truth is, many regenerative treatments fail simply because the ligament damage was never properly diagnosed.

At DMX Miami, we use Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX) to provide precise, real-time imaging that confirms ligament instability giving stem cell specialists the roadmap they need for targeted, effective treatment.

Why Stem Cell Therapy Needs a Functional Diagnosis First

Stem cells can’t fix what isn’t accurately identified.
 Most regenerative specialists rely on patient symptoms and static MRIs to determine where to inject but that’s a guess, not a guarantee.

Here’s the problem:

  • MRI and CT scans are taken while lying still
  • Ligament injuries only show up when the spine is in motion
  • Hidden instability may not be visible on any static test

DMX solves this problem.
 It shows exactly how your vertebrae and ligaments behave during real-world movement revealing the instability behind your symptoms.

What Is DMX and How Does It Work?

Digital Motion X-Ray (DMX) captures your cervical spine while you move, recording 30 frames per second in real time.

This advanced imaging study identifies:

  • Alar and transverse ligament laxity
  • Abnormal movement at C0–C1–C2
  • Joint instability and misalignment
  • Functional damage that guides injection targets

DMX is the missing diagnostic tool that bridges the gap between symptoms and successful stem cell outcomes.
