Important Common Conditions You See and Shouldn't Miss on Imaging - Dr. Alicia Yochum

You will participate in trying to see what she sees on actual case images. This class will enable you to gain more knowledge on what should be showing on imaging and what should not be showing, what should be cause for concern and possibly referred out, and issues that can help you better treat the patient’s concern to get them functioning better.
