$75.00

According the World Health Organization, spinal pain represents the major cause of absenteeism from the workplace, worldwide. Chiropractors manage spinal pain on a daily basis, with some within the profession recognizing the demand for a healthcare specialty such as a primary spine care physician. An essential tool available to licensed chiropractors to triage spinal pain includes access to imaging, along with the diagnostic interpretation of images to determine appropriateness of care.

Based upon the disproportionate incidence of spinal pain along with its extraordinary economic burden, our contributors highlight the role and clinical relevance of imaging for the chiropractor managing spinal pain, with an emphasis on contemporary, evidence-informed best practices.
