In this episode, we discuss the prevalence of medical imaging in the occupational setting and how important it is regarded by industrial athletes. One of the challenges an industrial clinician faces is the weight or over reliance of getting imaging done when a pain arises. How do we combat this? How do we address the very fact that in certain situations, imaging is little to no help and actually can be detrimental to one's progression through injury? Tune in to listen!
