RadiologyTeam Approach to Spine Care
Our Mission: Help our patients to return to active lives, through compassionate, evidence-based spine care, including advanced imaging and diagnostics, non-surgical treatment options and minimally invasive surgical techniques.
One of the only ways to permanently treat your back is to make it stronger, more flexible and more resistant to injury. Our physical therapists help patients learn special movements that will help make that happen.
Our number one goal is to help you return to your everyday activities without back or neck pain. If surgery is necessary, regardless of the type of spine condition you have, the neurosurgeons at SpineNevada Minimally Invasive Spine Institute can help. SpineNevada is the only spine center in the State of Nevada
to be included in SpineCenterNetwork.com — the only national
listing of credentialed spine centers. To be included, a spine
center must have board-certified or eligible spine
surgeons and physical medicine physicians; spine physical therapists; an emphasis on nonsurgical
capabilities; and report clinical
outcomes.

InMotion Diagnostics and Radiology at SpineNevada
SpineNevada’s InMotion Diagnostics includes InMotion MRI, Vertebral Motion Analysis, Digital X-rays and Radiology.
The MRI at SpineNevada is the G-Scan Brio by Esaote and specifically designed to offer the highest level spine and joint examination, including hips, knees, shoulders, elbows, wrists and ankles. Vertebral Motion Analysis (VMA) measures spine motion to test for instability and in contrast to traditional flex/ex x-rays, VMA assists patients through the complete spine bend, helping to avoid the “guarding”. InMotion Diagnostics also includes digital and full body scoliosis X-rays and a full service Radiology team (as shown in photo).

Testimonials
When Tom first visited Dr. Edward Perry at SpineNevada, he was losing strength in his left leg and in extreme pain. After discussing treatment options, Tom decided to move forward with a spine surgery option called OLIF. His pain and neurological symptoms were greatly improved after surgery and he returned to work as a high school football coach within two months. Read more.
"I owe my career to Dr. Lynch. If it wasn't for his brilliance as a spinal specialist, I would have been unable to perform my duties as an active duty Marine. There is no way for me to possibly write enough words to express my gratitude for Dr. Lynch and his entire staff at Spine Nevada. He will always have my utmost love and respect." Read more.
“I was really impressed with the amount of time Dr. Lynch spent with me. We discussed in detail the minimally invasive spine surgery that would treat my condition. I felt most comfortable with Dr. Lynch’s surgery recommendation and chose him to be my spine surgeon,” Greg says.“I feel great now — no more pain — wish I’d had the minimally invasive surgery at Spine Nevada earlier,” Greg exclaims. “I struggled off and on with the sciatica pain for nearly two years.” Read and watch more.
