The term diagnostics (which comes from the Greek word for decision) refers to the detection and naming of a disease.
In addition to a patient's medical history (anamnesis) and physical examinations, doctors may use any number of diagnostic procedures to arrive at a sufficiently precise diagnosis.
Even if most modern diagnostic examinations involve no significant risks to the patient, it is always important for the physician to carefully consider the purpose of each diagnostic examination.
Selecting the right diagnostic methods enables the physician to arrive at a sufficiently precise diagnosis as a basis for choosing and implementing a course of treatment that is optimally geared to promoting the recovery and well-being of the patient.
Pilots have a reputation for avoiding doctors. Whether or not they deserve this reputation, pilots, like few other professionals, face a double jeopardy in case of illness, because illness for pilots is more closely linked to career disability. While financial risks can be covered by loss-of-license insurance policies, being barred from the cockpit can remain a painful gap in the life of a pilot. However, even a temporary unfit-to-fly classification can lead to considerable problems in a pilot's professional and social environment. The fear of being labeled unfit to fly leads many pilots to trivialize the early symptoms of various disorders - especially symptoms of an orthopaedic nature - and postpone decisions to seek medical advice.
Arthrose und Gelenksverschleiß betrifft viele Menschen. Doch gibt es frühe Anzeichen, die auf die Gefahr für die Gelenke hinweisen.
Durch Fehl- oder Überbelastung wird bei dieser Erkrankung der Gelenk-Knorpel abgebaut. Das Gelenk wird schmerzhaft, weniger belastbar und kann schließlich sogar unbeweglich werden.
The conventional x-ray technique cannot be done without in the orthopaedic diagnostics as this visualising method allows an insight into the bone structure. In the age of high-tech, however, the digital x-ray method with its many advantages is replacing standard machines.
Der Fußabdruck sagt sehr viel über die Fußgesundheit aus. Durch die Darstellung der genauen Lastverteilung beim Auftreten, aber auch bei der Abrollbewegung, spiegelt die Podometrie die Situation der Gelenke, Sehnen und Weichteile im Fuß wider. Schmerzen oder Fehlstellungen führen beim Fußabdruck zu einer sofort sichtbaren Änderung.
The 3 dimensional spinal surveying measures with the aid of a combination of video-measuring-techniques and modern data processing the exact location and form of the spine and vertebrae. That fast and painless method of examination is free of radiation. Therefore it is particularly suitable to control the course of the spinal diseases to exactly match the various therapies.
The ultra-sonic diagnostics (sonography) is one of the most common visualising diagnostic methods. It can be applied for many different purposes and this method does not present any strain for the patient.
By the use of small electrodes that are painlessly applied to the skin's surface, important information is obtained concerning the ability of the musculature to tense and relax. Tense and weakened areas are shown and are compared with reference data. The measurements help choose the suitable treatment. Therapeutic measures can be specifically adjusted and controlled in the course of treatment.
With the aid of the skeleton-age-determination, you can determine easily and exactly how tall children and adolescents will probably be and if the results correspond with the normal values.
The joint space width depends on the thickness of the cartilage on the articular surface lies. The greater the distance the thicker the layer of cartilage - which is the better for the joint is. Special digital X-rays on the side provide a comparison reference to the normal age wear individually in each patient and allows for the early detection of abnormal changes. Measurements of joint space width in the new technology have been used for 10 years successfully carried out by us.
Sports keep us healthy. It trains muscles, stimulates the metabolism and supports the mobility of the joints. However if certain illnesses are diagnosed or with mechanical strain sports can also cause or worsen damages. That is why it is advisable to undergo a fitness examination first.
The bone density measuring (osteodensitometry) is an internationally approved method to determine the osteoporosis risk in patients. The method does not have any side-effects. With this painless measuring the osteoporosis- dependent risk of fracture can be determined.
The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI, also briefly MR), also known as magnetic resonance imaging called, is computed as an imaging procedure, especially in medical diagnostics is used. It allows the representation of the structure and function of tissues and organs in the body.
The computed tomography is an important diagnostic procedure in medicine. It is an object with a rotating X-ray tube, a large number of X-rays from different directions.
