Traditional Live Classroom: Mark Studin, DC, FASBE Triaging the Trauma Patient, John Tierney, Esq. Certifying Causality and Admissibility, Harry Weiser, MD Disc Surgical Options and Mild Traumatic vs Traumatic Brain Injuries, William Owens, DC Research Review in Trauma, Zair Fishkin, PhD, MD Spinal Biomechanics in Trauma, Sheldon Hoxie, DC, FACFN Electrodiagnositing testing in Trauma Patient, Robert Peyster, MD Neuroradiologist MRI Interpretation, Physics and History. The history and physics of MRI from theory to advanced diagnostics. Focused on spinal anatomy, protocols in tesla, slice thickness and cord, disc and bone pathology from traumatically induced lesions. Emphasis placed on triaging patient dependent upon the lesion diagnosed.

MRI Spine and Disc Pathology, MRI interpretation of bulged, herniated, protruded, extruded, sequestered and fragmented disc pathologies in etiology and neurological sequella in relationship to the spinal cord and spinal nerve roots. Utilizing MRI sequencing to maximize visualization of pathology in the trauma and non-trauma patient.

The American Academy of Medical-Legal Professionals was developed to foster a collaborative effort between medical and legal professionals in an ethical relationship. Its purpose is to support on a national level through research, dialogue and practice excellence, professionals in the medical-legal arena.

Spinal anatomy of all MRI views utilizing T1, T2, 3D gradient, stacking and STIR sequences of imaging. Advanced protocols of MRI examination with multiple sequences to create concurrent diagnostic findings.

MRI interpretation of spinal disc pathologies as a result of trauma and degenerative factors with resultant neurological compromise. Spinal cord and spinal canal pathologies with space occupying lesion interpretation.

Quantifying those forces to determine bodily injury and calculating speed, distance, time and drag factors in determining causality and direction of forces.

Multiple- module certificate course focusing on Spinal trauma MRI’s covering the history of imaging, normal MRI spinal anatomy, abnormal variants, imaging of the post-surgical spine and spinal lesions.
