Company Profile

Diagnostic Imaging Solutions was established as a response to demand, expressed by many Australian and European chiropractors who wanted more relevant information in their radiology reports. Chiropractic is a unique profession with unique therapeutic interventions. As such, chiropractors clinical decisions are not based purely on the presence of pathological processes, in a medical sense and often include more subtle, holistic considerations with an emphasis on improving neurologic function within the therapeutic rationale. Where indicated, chiropractors may utilise appropriate imaging, both to establish presence of disease as well as assessing complex biomechanical dysfunction.

In order to provide the profession with clinically relevant information contained within the radiology report, chiropractors often look to chiropractic radiologists to provide highly specialised reports, specific to the profession in order to make appropriate decisions for diagnosis and therapeutic intervention.
