Fluoroscopy is a medical imaging technique that uses continuous X-rays to create real-time moving images of the body’s internal structures, such as bones, joints, and soft tissues. It is often used to guide surgical procedures, joint injections, and other interventions, allowing clinicians to see movement and make precise, immediate decisions during treatment.
When combined with non-invasive treatments, our clinic uses fluoroscope imaging to guide precise therapies and monitor progress for back, neck, knee, and other musculoskeletal conditions.

Here are some frequently asked questions about a fluoroscopy.
Make an appointment with Dr. Sheps if your pain doesn’t improve with at-home treatments like ice, rest, and activity changes. That’s especially true if your pain gets worse and affects your ability to work or do other routine activities. Chiropractors like Dr. Sheps use manual therapies and other conservative treatments.
Fluoroscopy provides real-time moving images of the body, allowing doctors to see structures and guide procedures as they happen. Digital X-rays capture a single static image, showing a snapshot of bones or tissues at one moment in time. While both use X-ray radiation, fluoroscopy typically involves longer exposure to track motion, whereas digital X-rays are quick and use minimal radiation.
These painful conditions often involve or impact the nervous system, which can cause referred pain and dysfunction distant to the region of injury. The benefits of chiropractic care extend to general health issues, as well, since our body structure affects our overall function. DCs also counsel patients on diet, nutrition, exercise, healthy habits, and occupational and lifestyle modification. We are utilizing emerging medical technologies to treat conditions within the chiropractic scope of practice.
