[Occupational diseases of the "spine"--guidelines for expert assessment].
Until now there has been no definition of a typical job-related back injury. During the examination the only possibility was to separate all recognizable non-job-influenced injuries from the diagnosis, through which a step-by-step, logically organized progression was proven in practice. If the professional hypothetical claims are fulfilled, then the remaining disability is the outcome of job stress and can so be evaluated. The clinical-functional and neurological evidence delivers a conclusive evaluation in percentages that can be attuned without difficulty to verified standards of traumatic spinal assessment.
