ABOUT THE BOOK

EDITORIAL REVIEW

This excellent resource serves as a guide to the specific tests used in orthopedic physical assessment, with a basic introduction, quick-reference indexes to the different tests, and a compilation of tests grouped by body region. Each testing procedure opens to a two-page spread so that all information is within easy reach. The updated second edition features more than twice as many high-quality illustrations, more information on disease assessment, and "Orthopedic Gamuts" -- tables of condensed information that serve as quick-reference tools. Chapters also include essential anatomy, motion assessment, muscle function, and imaging elements.

USER REVIEWS

"This was a recommended text in my chiropractic college for my orthopedics class. I found the illustrations very helpful with learning the orthopedic tests which seemed so overwhelming at first. I kept practicing these tests with my friends before the lab test and got good grades. The national boards do use this text as a reference, I highly recommend using this book to study for the boards for either Part II, III, or IV. For x-ray portions of boards -more so in Part III and IV---I highly recommend Skeletal Radiology by Terry Yochum. This is a definite must buy as well as Patrick Leonardi's National Board of Chiropractic Part II, Part III and Part IV study guides. The questions were great and helped me to concentrate on the important topics of high yield questions asked on the boards. Thanks Terry Yochum, Patrick Leonardi and Ronald Evans for making my life much easier in chiropractic school and on the boards."
