Ebook An Atlas of Back Pain

---

There are few greater challenges to clinicians than
the diagnosis and treatment of patients with back
pain. The process of making such a diagnosis
requires an understanding of the complex anatomy
and physiology of the spine and the ability to differ
entiate between structural, functional, congenital
and pathological conditions that can occur in the
spine and potentially cause or impact upon the
symptoms of back pain and decreased functional
capacity. The ability to examine and treat patients
with back pain is dependent on the ability of a clini
cian to visualize changes that can occur in the
normal structure and function of the spine that may
result in pain, and to assess the effect of the social,
occupational and emotional factors that may impact
upon the manner in which a patient responds to
pain.
This Atlas of Back Pain is an effort to help the
clinician in the visualization of the spine by defining
normal and abnormal spinal anatomy and
physiology. This will be attempted by means of
diagrams, anatomical and pathological slides as well
as the presentation of imaging and physiological tests
that are available to the clinician and which can be
used to assist in the diagnosis of patients with back
pain.
In order to achieve this goal, it was felt appropri
ate to make this text a team effort, since no one
specialty or area of expertise has been found able to
adequately present the complex issues associated
with back pain. The pathological slides accumulated
over 30 years by one of the authors (W.H. Kirkaldy
Willis) have been supplemented with imaging
studies from a very busy orthopedic practice (T.N.
Bernard) and experience in clinical and experimental
neurophysiology (S. Haldeman) so as to present a
comprehensive picture of the factors which should
be considered in evaluating patients with back pain.
This text is truly a combination of the
