Description
This course consists of analyzing and interpreting diagnostic images of patients with a variety of dysfunctions, primarily of the musculoskeletal system but including small segments on the cardiopulmonary and circulatory systems as they apply primarily to movement abnormalities. Case studies are used to show correlations between structure, function, and effect on functional activity. Normal images are compared to abnormal images and correlations are again drawn between structure and function. A variety of imaging techniques will be studied including radiographs, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and bone scans. Images, normal and abnormal, also will be correlated with a variety of signs and symptoms including movement abnormalities and functional limitations. A variety of teaching and evaluation methods will be used. During the course, students are expected to demonstrate competency in the professional behaviors necessary for becoming an effective physical th
