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.

When Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy: A Clinical Series (Pt. 3)
When Radiculopathy Isn’t Radiculopathy

Before introducing subscapularis syndrome as an upper extremity analog, it is essential to revisit piriformis syndrome as a well-established example of myogenic pseudo-radiculopathy. Piriformis syndrome has long served as a clinical exception to disc-centric models of lower extremity pain and provides an important framework for understanding how deep muscular dysfunction can mimic radiculopathy in the absence of nerve root compression.

From Pain Scores to Performance Metrics
From Pain Scores to Performance Metrics

Pain has become the dominant language of musculoskeletal healthcare. Numeric pain-rating scales and symptom reports are routinely used as primary indicators of clinical success. But while pain reduction is meaningful, it is an incomplete and often misleading representation of recovery. This has real consequences for patient adherence, long-term outcomes, and how conservative care is perceived within the broader healthcare system.
