Funktionsaufnahmen der Wirbelsäule

English translation: functional X-ray of the spine

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:Funktionsaufnahmen der Wirbelsäule
English translation:functional X-ray of the spine
Entered by: Cilian O'Tuama

German to English translations [PRO]
Medical / Insurance claim after road accident
German term or phrase: Funktionsaufnahmen der Wirbelsäule
Röntgenaufnahmen des gesamten Skeletts, mehrfache Aufnahmen des Thorax, CT des Kopfes, FUNKTIONSAUFNAHMEN der Wirbelsäule, Ultrasonographie des Herzens und des Herzbeutels etc. etc.

I've found spinogram and spinograph, but do these refer to the "function"?

Any alternatives (and which of my two suggestions is better)?

Thanks

function x-rays of the vertebral column wit special projections


Explanation:
'Funktionsaufnahmen' indeed are static with maximal and post traumatic impaired inclination and reclination. They are taken a) to show the reduced movement ( mostly of the cervical spine ) and b) to rule out fracture lines that might be quite difficult to demonstrate.

Hope this helps
