Got the new journal yesterday.
http://www.pmrjournal.org/current
Read it.
Actually read it.
I hated the old rag because it had no relevance to clinical practice, no integrity in the articles published, and no topics of interest.
So the new journal comes out and I go through the TOC and see things that make me want to read. Dreyfuss on immediate relief after spinal procedures (without the local anesthetic in the canal) and another article on how inexperienced injectionists cannot recognize contrast patterns- plus Smith on Msk US- I liked the Firescan article, but can tell there will never be a cost benefit ration making it feasible (too bad- unless we can harness the Predator's optics).
Bummers: Every a-hole in the world is getting their US machine and takinga weekend course in Msk US- and it is clear the drive is financial and not academic or for pt benefit. No mention of spinal US. Where is the link to the online quiz for contrast dispersion patterns?
Only little nitpicking. So we have a journal worth reading. It's about time.
Tip of the hat to:
