In the next contributions we want to explain some diagnostic procedures, which have a tremendous value for orthopedic treatments. Therefore we will enter into the achievements of x-ray-diagnostics and introduce the so-called image-converter.

Next we will occupy ourselves with the question, how relevant computer tomography and magnetic-resonance-imaging actually are. We make comments on bone density measurement, which is so important for the diagnosis of osteoporosis. After taking a look on the electromyographic muscle examination finally the 3-D-measurement for the spinal column will come up.
