Article Synopsis
- In ten states, physical therapists are allowed to order diagnostic imaging, which helps them see if patients need more tests or treatments.
- A study in North Dakota found that many physical therapists believe ordering these tests would help their patients but still don’t do it.
- The study also revealed that barriers like complicated procedures, limited permissions, and lack of training make it hard for therapists to refer patients for imaging.
