Overview

How do I perform a comprehensive spine examination on patients with low back pain or radicular pain? This interactive
session will combine anatomy, physiology, current evidence, and physical examination skills to h connect physical findings
with lumbar spine pain generators. We will review commonly utilized tests by spine specialists to provide a deeper
understanding of spine anatomy and biomechanics.

Learning Objectives

  • Obtain a deeper knowledge of lumbar spine anatomy
  • Learn provocative physical exam findings to more accurately diagnose sources of low back pain
  • Understand prevalence and epidemiology of lumbar spine pain generators
