Module Aims
This module aims to develop clinical image interpretation skill required to recognise and describe, various pathological states relevant to chiropractic
This module aims to develop clinical deductive reasoning for a variety of orthopaedic and general pathological conditions. Correlating the history, physical examination of reported signs and symptoms, reports from laboratory findings to the radiographic signs. Students will learn to apply and develop their knowledge and understanding of the pathophysiological sequale of events which transpire in order for the radiographic and physical findings to occur.

Learning Outcomes
| # | Learning Outcome |
|---|---|
| LO1 | Demonstrate, describe and show an understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and symptomatology of various arthritides, infection, endocrine/metabolic, scoliosis, spondylolisthesis and haematological/vascular disease. Using evidence-based practice, critically evaluate and analyse clinical information and the radiographic manifestations relevant to different conditions mentioned above. |
| LO2 | Demonstrate an ability to recognise various pathological states via clinical imaging relevant to chiropractic. Formulate a comprehensible radiological report as required by current legislation. |
