Second Howe-Yochum Diagnostic Imaging Fellowship Completed

Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

Dr. Jane Wylie, a third-year radiology resident from the Anglo-European Chiropractic College (AECC), completed the second Howe-Yochum Diagnostic Fellowship September 14-30, 1992 in Denver, Colorado.

Dr. Wylie spent numerous hours with Dr. Terry R. Yochum reviewing case material, and also viewed, with a number of the medical radiologists in Denver area hospitals, specialized imaging procedures including nuclear medicine scans, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

The Howe-Yochum Fellowship is sponsored by the Eastman Kodak Company. Kodak gives financial support to the resident and sends John Cullinan, R.T. to provide lectures and personal tutoring in the technical areas of x-ray quality control and radiation physics.

The fellowship is offered only once a year to third-year radiology residents, and provides an opportunity for the enhancement and training of the future chiropractic radiologists.

From Search to Selection: Why AI Visibility Matters for DCs

Patients are no longer just searching; they are asking. Consumers increasingly use AI-powered platforms such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity to ask complete questions in conversational language. Instead of typing “chiropractor Miami,” patients may ask, “What is the best nonsurgical treatment for sciatica?” or “Who helps pregnant women with low back pain near me? This shift represents one of the biggest changes in healthcare marketing since the rise of Google itself.

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.

Are You Meeting the Chiropractic Standard of Care?
Are You Meeting the Chiropractic Standard of Care?

The term standard of care is a legal term and a medical concept. There is no single, universally recognized standard of care document or authoritative reference. The medical concept defines what practitioners should do in practice. The legal term used determines whether a practitioner failed to meet that expectation. This article examines the standard of care for the doctor of chiropractic.
