Another method provides for localising a damaged intervertebral disk by measuring pressure in a first disk suspected to be damaged, and measuring the pressure in disks surrounding the suspected disk, comparing the different pressures and diagnosing the damaged disk or simultaneously registering how vertebrae move relative to one another.
