Dynamic Spine Models for Medical Legal Education

Dynamic Disc Designs Corp. provide educators a new way to demonstrate spinal problems.

2012-07-16

NANAIMO, BC, July 16, 2012 (Press-News.org) Dynamic Disc Designs Corp. (ddd) is a spine modeling company like no other. Their realistic and movable models now allow lawyers to effectively educate spinal injuries in a dynamic life-like way.

Prior models did not have the anatomical detail and have lost their luster as they lagged behind fundamental research. ddd prides itself on following the research to provide realistic anatomical detail to allow the clear visualization of pain and neurological problems in a dynamic and convincing way.

Injury lawyers can select from a number of spine models of differing injuries. Some of the dynamic features include: disc herniation, disc bulge, active inflammation, annular tears, nerve root encroachment, disc height loss, spondylolisthesis, degeneration, fracture, endplate injury, stenosis...etc. Also, client specific modeling from MRI or CT imaging can be constructed with a recreation of specific bony and soft tissue injury. Dr. Jerome Fryer, the innovations officer of ddd, works closely with attorneys to develop convincing and dynamic hands-on models for effective courtroom presentation.

"The bone models purchased from Dynamic Disc Designs are the best I've seen yet. I personally use them on a daily basis for patient education. In addition, they have been a helpful visual aid during litigation proceedings. Seriously, a bone model is worth a thousand words."

Louis E. Crespo MD

"Finally, a realistic spinal model that can demonstrate real-life spine injuries. And importantly, show load related pain problems like disc herniations, disc bulge, nerve root and dural sac encroachment with a dynamic deforming load sensitive model. Explain high intensity zones (active inflammation), for example, of annular tears on MRI with a see-through vertebral lens and view of the intervertebral disc. A powerful educational tool for any Personal Injury Lawyer involved with spinal related injuries."

Two arch enemies of gaming have suddenly began to look strangely similar and it's just as easy to plug in a controller to your PC as it is to stick to traditional controls, ...
