For this month's clinical corner article, Matt and Allie discuss an article from the JOSPT that discusses the current diagnostic imaging curriculum  in PT schools, comparing it to different PT programs in the country and how it has evolved in the past several years.
Currently, not all states permit physical therapists  to order or read MRI/X-ray/CT Scans etc. With the increase of Direct Access patients - in order to promote more efficient care, physical therapists could have the ability to refer patients for diagnostic imaging in the near future.
