22
Q

What does the T in PART stand for?

A

Tissue tone changes

23
Q

Which two components of PART are needed?

A

Any 2, but 1 must be A or R

24
Q

What is P?

A

Pain elicited during the course of the examination, described in terms of location, quality, and intensity

25
Q

Starred point in P

A

Pain during static palpation

26
Q

What is A?

A

Asymmetry or misalignment may be described at the regional and/or segmental level; Diagnostic imaging may be used

27
Q

Starred points in A
