To help doctors improve their radiology report writing and interpretation skills, discuss chiropractic cases that can impact their practice, and share research with an emphasis on radiology malpractice. Dr. Stiles’ videos were created with the intention that the attendees are sitting with him and discussing the chiropractic cases instead of lecturing to them as if on auto pilot. Each case walked into a chiropractic office and was managed by a Doctor of Chiropractic so there is direct clinical implication for each case.
