This course is designed to provide physical therapists with the background necessary to screen patients for the presence of disease. This information, combined with the therapist’s knowledge and skills for management of neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction, will provide you with a comprehensive examination scheme. The information provided in the course should facilitate professional communication between the physical therapist and other health care professionals, as well as communication between the physical therapist and patient. Analysis, synthesis, and evaluation will be demonstrated through a final portfolio displaying best practice imaging application in a student’s desired area of study.
