AMTI Advances in the Management of Trauma Injuries Module 3: Imaging (Online 2020)
Overview
This educational program is a detailed overview of imaging methods of traumatic injuries to the cervical, thoracic and lumbo-pelvic spine; including common injuries that present to the chiropractic office. This course teaches doctors to have an in-depth knowledge of various imaging methods including X-ray, fluoroscopy, MRI, motion MRI, and CT scanning. This will enable doctors of chiropractic to better understand when to order various imaging types so accurate injury identification can occur in practice. We also train doctors how to incorporate imaging findings into a care plan, including how findings should affect daily clinical documentation in the practice.
