Pathologic Insufficiency, and Stress Fractures - How can I diagnose and differentiate?

Join Dr. Erin Ruof as she defines pathologic, insufficiency, and stress fractures. She will present case studies that will uncover common etiologies, the radiographic findings, and appropriate follow-up for patient care for these injuries. This course was originally presented by Dr. Ruof on January 30, 2024, and sponsored by Quinlan Imaging Consultation.

• •Differentiate between pathologic, insufficiency, and stress fractures based on etiology and clinical presentation
• •Interpret radiographic findings specific to each fracture type to support accurate diagnosis
• •Identify common etiologies and risk factors associated with pathologic and insufficiency fractures
• •Apply case-based learning to recognize clinical patterns and improve diagnostic accuracy
• •Determine appropriate follow-up protocols and imaging recommendations for patient management
• •Understand the role of bone quality and systemic factors in fracture development
