Description

"The second edition of this handy pocket-sized book presents a comprehensive collection of clinical tests for all the major musculoskeletal structures. The tests are divided into separate sections based on body region. Each chapter opens with a figure depicting range of motion and an algorithm that provides a rapid overview of symptoms, tests, imaging, and diagnosis. For each clinical test, the author provides a step-by-step description of the procedure, which is followed by a brief discussion of the assessment and of the diagnosis that the test may provide." "This book is an invaluable guide to selecting the appropriate tests for the clinical examination. It is ideal for orthopedists, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists, physical therapists, osteopathic physicians, and residents in these specialties."--BOOK JACKET.
