Talk to me about – Differentiation of Cervical Disc Pathologies

Disc pathologies within the cervical spine have a variety of ways they can present in the clinic which can cause some confusion for the clinician.

However, spend 30 minutes with a mentor to obtain a better understanding of how each disc pathology presents and how to navigate through each case. You will also learn how to treat each pathology and when they may benefit from an injection and/or surgical consult.
