This chapter provides information you will need to understand certain
anatomical dysfunctions, rheumatic diseases, and dermatologic
conditions. Be able to interpret 3D anatomy in the context of radiologic
imaging. For the rheumatic diseases, create instructional cases or
personas that include the most likely presentation and symptoms: risk
factors, gender, important markers (eg, autoantibodies), and other
epidemiologic factors. Doing so will allow you to answer the higher
order questions that are likely to be asked on the exam.
