A catalogue of Chiropractic Education study aids

A catalogue of Chiropractic Education study aids.

This catalogue of Chiropractic Education study aids have been made to help contribute to self-study, with a main emphasis on chiropractic education, but it is also of great help if you are a student of medicine, osteopathy or physiotherapy. Dealing with practical OSLER cases, diagnosis cases, neuro/orthopaedics and many more subjects, you will hopefully find this useful.

Anatomy/physiology:

- Ankle joint anatomy

- BBC Science: Human body and mind (great resource for learning about muscles, nerves and you can also put yourself to the test with quizzes)

- Extremeworkout.com: Interactive Anatomy and Physiology Resources

CASES (OSLER, neuroorthopaedics, diagnosis, neurology):

- Leg pain (EMQ - Extended matching questions)

- Mixed questions (Differential diagnosis #1)

- Mixed questions (Differential diagnosis #2)

- OSLER Case #1 (Neurological case)

- OSLER Case #2 (Headache)

- OSLER/OSCE Case #3 (Leg pain)

Diagnosis:

- See cases above.

Personal recommendation (the book(s) I found most useful when studying diagnosis):

- Berkowitz' Clinical Pathophysiology made simple (see link at the bottom of article).

Practical:

- Prophylactic Sports Taping (An introduction)

Radiography / Investigative imaging:

- LearningRadiography.com: features weekly investigative imaging cases, also features great on-site powerpoint presentations such as this one;

Presentation: How to interpret a basic chest x-ray

- RadiologyEducation.com: a digital library of radiology education resources.

- University of Virginia Health Sciences Center: Skeletal trauma radiology (great site for learning how to interpret and look for fractures, dislocations and other traumatic effects in the whole body; including fractures of the cervical-, thoracic- and lumbar spine. A fantastic resource.)

Recommended literature:

- Berkowitz' Clinical Pathophysiology made simple (Diagnosis)

- Bontrager's Handbook of Radiographic Positioning and Techniques (Radiography)

- Bushong's Radiologic Science for Technologists (Radiography / investigative imaging)

- Gelb's Introduction to Clinical Neurology (Neurology/neuroanatomy)

- Goldberg's Clinical Neuroanatomy made simple (Neuroanatomy/neurology)

- Stone's Atlas of Skeletal Muscles (Anatomy)

- Tortura's Principles of Anatomy and Physiology (Anatomy/physiology)
