Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task. And in spite of their efforts, Japanese DCs are currently faced with two chiropractic professions.
ICA Council Calls for Papers
The International Chiropractors Association (ICA)'s Council on Chiropractic Imaging is requesting the submission of papers on all aspects of diagnostic imaging as it applies to chiropractic science and practice. The Council on Chiropractic Imaging Technical Review Committee is compiling manuscripts to be published in a volume of readings in imaging including x-ray, videofluoroscopy, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These manuscripts will be used as a supplemental text in postgraduate teaching programs and as an aid to doctors in active practice.
Manuscripts must be the original work of the author(s), properly referenced, and written at an appropriate professional and technical level. The papers should present completed work in a specific area of research or clinical observation and application of imaging technology. Previously published papers are welcomed and multiple submissions from a single author will be considered.
Manuscripts must be typed and double-spaced, and submitted no later than September 1, 1992 to the following address:
International Chiropractors Association
