### Patient: Doctor, I have been having severe back pain and I heard it may be due to spondylolisthesis. Can you help me with a diagnosis?
### Doctor: Sure, to diagnose spondylolisthesis, we need to perform some medical tests. The primary test would be a radiographic imaging procedure, followed by a plain X-ray. Other tests may include Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and other diagnostic procedures such as interviews, evaluations, or consultations. If required, we may also perform therapeutic procedures such as insertion of a catheter or spinal stimulator and injection into the spinal canal, and physical therapy exercises to relieve the pain.
