Rehabilitation of the spine for non-surgical reduction of Thoracic and Lumbar Cobb angles for idiopathic and functional Scoliosis.

An extensive understanding of non-surgical biomechanical restoration of the saggital spinal lordotic and kyphotic curvatures.

An in-depth understanding for treating pediatric and geriatric patients for proper Spinal Biomechanics and Posture Correction. This includes degeneration and regeneration of tissues and how these factors affect spinal biomechanical correction.

Extensive understanding of spinal soft tissue injuries and how they correlate to bodily injury and their implication for the healing process. Ligamentous damage and arthritic conditions and how they relate to impairment and treatment.

An in-depth understanding of x-ray analysis and line drawing to determine percent loss of curvature, anterior/posterior translation of intersegmental laxity, breakdown of spinal mechanical lever arms and the muscle spinal units which attach to them, and analysis for non-surgical saggital and A-P spinal correction. This also implicates x-ray findings and their correlation with injury and arthritic conditions.

An extensive understanding of clinically correlating postural distortions to symptomology. The Pettibon System spinal rehabilitation system utilization for correcting postural distortions.

Brain and head physiology, brain mapping and pathology as a sequella to trauma. Traumatic brain injury, mild traumatic brain injury, axonal shearing, diffuse axonal injury and concussion are detailed in etiology and clincially. Clinical presentation, advanced diagnostic imaging and electrodiagnostic are detailed in analysis to create a differential diagnosis. Balance disorders that are often as a result of trauma are also explored from clinical presentation to advanced imaging and differential diagnosis.

The clinical application of the results of space occupying lesions. Disc and tumor pathologies and the clinical indications of manual and adjustive therapies in the patient with spinal nerve root and spinal cord insult as sequellae.

MRI interpretation sequencing of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine inclusive of T1, T2, STIR and 3D gradient studies to ensure the accurate diagnosis of the region visualized.

MRI interpretation of bone, intradural, extradural, cord and neural sleeve lesions. Tuberculosis, drop lesions, metasasis, ependymoma, schwanoma and numerous other spinal related tumors and lesions.

MRI interpretation of bulged, herniated, protruded, extruded sequestered and fragmented disc pathologies in etiology and neurological sequellae in relationship to the spinal cord and spinal nerve roots.

Normal anatomy of axial and sagittal views utilizing T1, T2, 3D Gradient and STIR sequences of imaging. Standardized and desired protocols in views and sequencing of MRI examination to create an accurate diagnosis in MRI.

Magnetic fields, T1 and T2 relaxations, nuclear spins, phase encoding, spin echo, T1 and T2 contrast, magnetic properties of metals and the historical perspective of the creation of NMR and MRI

An in-depth understanding of the protocols in triaging and reporting the clinical findings of the trauma patient. Maintaining ethical relationships with the medical-legal community.

An extensive understanding of the injured with clinically coordinating the history, physical findings and when to integrate neurodiagnostics. An understanding on how to utilize emergency room records in creating an accurate diagnosis and the significance of “risk factors” in spinal injury.

An extensive understanding of the physics involved in the transference of energy from the bullet car to the target car. This includes G's of force, newtons, gravity, energy, skid marks, crumple zones, spring factors, event data recorder and the graphing of the movement of the vehicle before, during and after the crash. Determining the clinical correlation of forces and bodily injury.

MRI interpretation, physiology, history and clinical indications, Bone Scan interpretation, physiology and clinical indications, x-ray clinical indications for the trauma patient.

Electromyography (EMG,) Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV,) Somato Sensory Evoked Potential (SSEP,) Visual Evoked Potential (VEP,) Brain Stem Auditory Evoked Potential (BAER) and Visual-Electronystagmosgraphy (V-ENG) interpretation, protocols and clinical indications for the trauma patient.

Understanding the necessity for accurate documentation and diagnosis utilizing the ICD-9 and the CPT to accurately describe the injury through diagnosis. Understanding and utilizing state regulations on reimbursement issues pertaining to healthcare.

Understanding the necessity for accurate documentation, diagnosis and clinical correlation to the injury when reporting injuries in the medical-legal community. Documenting the kinesiopathology, myopathology, neuropathology, pathophysiology in both a functional and structural paradigm.
