110th KAC Annual Convention | Sports Medicine Radiology: A Case-based Approach for Chiropractors with Dr. Beverly Harger

This 2-hour case-based course is designed for chiropractors who manage athletes and active individuals across all competitive levels. Through real clinical scenarios, attendees will enhance their ability to integrate radiologic findings with functional biomechanics, manual therapy planning, and evidence-informed return-to-play decision-making. The course emphasizes subtle imaging clues that impact chiropractic management, including identifying when musculoskeletal injuries are safe to treat conservatively and when advanced imaging, co-management, or referral is warranted. Participants will review X-ray, MRI, CT, and ultrasound applications relevant to sports injuries of the spine and extremities, including stress injuries, ligamentous instability, cartilage lesions, and high-risk fracture patterns. This course supports improved diagnostic confidence, greater safety, and optimized sports performance outcomes.
