The Osteopathic Clinical Joint Exam textbook (Stockard, 2014) is intended to present a comprehensive approach to musculoskeletal complaints by detailing the basic exam using both osteopathic and orthopedic techniques in a concise way with the goal of arriving at a differential diagnosis based on (history and) clinical exam alone. This was the type of medicine practiced by our Osteopathic forefathers before the advent of sophisticated diagnostic modalities such as Computerized Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or ultrasound, and physicians became excellent clinicians as a result. Volume I covers cervical spine, shoulder and elbow joint exams.
