atlas available devoted to the
physical diagnosis of pain, this
highly practical guide mirrors the
clinician's approach to pain
evaluation: focusing on "what is it"
rather than "where is it." Through

expert Dr. Steven Waldman provides
clear, how-to methods for evaluating
and diagnosing more than 240

their physical signs. Comprehensive
and lavishly illustrated, this
essential atlas is a must-have
resource for all practitioners and
trainees who encounter patients with
pain. • Provides essential physical
examination techniques for the full
range of pain-related conditions in
the cervical spine, shoulder, elbow,
forearm, wrist and hand, chest wall,
thorax and thoracic spine, lumbar
spine, abdominal wall and pelvis,

• Each
chapter follows the same concise
format for ease of use and quick
reference: anatomy, inspection,
palpation, and range of motion,
followed by relevant special tests.
