Chiroweb Adds Student Section

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

In its continuing effort to become the most complete chiropractic resource on the World Wide Web, Chiroweb has added the Chiropractic School DaZe section to its website. School DaZe, sponsored by the National Chiropractic Mutual Insurance Company, provides valuable information for chiropractic students and students-to-be.

School DaZe is divided into several sections for easy access. For instance, the Job Board, a free service of Chiroweb, helps students find an associate position and lets DCs and students post job information. The International Chiropractic Colleges Directory provides links to many college websites, plus addresses and telephone/fax numbers. And the Chat Room offers a forum for chiropractic students around the world to meet, interact and share ideas.

School DaZe also contains an e-mail address where students can ask questions or request more current information on colleges. You can access School Daze from Chiroweb via the For Chiros Only section; you can also enter it directly at [url=http://www.chiroweb.com/SchoolDaze/]http://www.chiroweb.com/SchoolDaze/[/url].

When Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series (Pt. 6): Differential Diagnosis
When Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy

While cervical disc pathology can unquestionably produce radiculopathy, many patients presenting with arm pain, paresthesia or perceived weakness do not exhibit the clinical behavior of true nerve-root compromise. In these cases, failure to differentiate the primary pain generator may lead to unnecessary spinal injections, nerve ablation procedures or surgical consultation despite limited likelihood of benefit.

A National Turning Point: N.J. Board Rejects Insurer Medical X-Ray Rules for DCs

The New Jersey Board of Chiropractic Examiners has made a precedential decision, concurring with the Association of New Jersey Chiropractors' (ANJC) position paper on chiropractic X-ray guidelines. In plain terms, the board ruled, consistent with the ANJC position, that insurance companies cannot use medical X-ray rules or recommendations, like those written by the American College of Radiology (ACR), to decide whether a chiropractor's X-ray was necessary.

The Relationship Behind the Referral
The Relationship Behind the Referral

For decades, chiropractors have been told the answer to more professional referrals is simple: educate medical doctors about chiropractic. There is some truth in that advice; but it is also incomplete. The modern challenge is not simply getting another healthcare professional to know that chiropractors exist. It is becoming the kind of clinician (and building the kind of professional relationship) that makes collaboration easy and sustainable.
