The technology combines several imaging techniques to better diagnose and treat back pain, addressing the root cause of back and neck conditions, according to a Dec. 6 press release. 

EOS provides the system’s spine team with high-quality full-body images and accurate 3D measurements. 

The machine is also easily accessible for a wide range of patients because it stands upright, allowing individuals to walk in and stand.
