Description
Logically organized with comprehensive coverage, this newly revised third edition prepares you to choose the right orthopedic tests, accurately
assess any patient, and arrive at a clear diagnosis. Trusted for both its depth of coverage and its accessible, accurate information,
it features gamuts, clinical pearls, and cross-reference tables for quick and easy reference. Now in brilliant full color, with all
new photos of every test, it's even more visually appealing, and illustrates common conditions and procedural tests more effectively
than ever before. This edition offers a fresh look at testing for orthopedic conditions, with detailed text that explains the key moves
of each test, its alternate names, and the appropriate reporting statement. Extensive cross-referencing ensures that you can easily find
the right test for efficient and effective practice, and protocol charts guide you through the examination process step by step. The
companion DVD features video footage of Dr. Evans performing each assessment test in the book, along with his expert commentary.
