Auszug

Es gibt wenige Bereiche in der Medizin, wo die Meinungen so diametral entgegengesetzt stehen wie beim HWS-Schleudertrauma. Dafür gibt es mehrere Ursachen. Die Folgen einer HWS-Distorsion kann man nicht auf einem MR-Bild sehen. Es gibt auch keine andere Untersuchungsmethode, die zuverlässig diesen Zustand bestätigt oder ausschließt. Vorbestehende psychologische Faktoren spielen eine wichtige Rolle. Dies gilt sowohl für das klinische Erscheinungsbild wie auch für die Möglichkeiten der Genesung. Und schließlich sind bedeutsame wirtschaftliche Interessen involviert.
