This course is engineered to understand the full extent of the connective tissue injury-repair mechanisms inclusive of ligaments, muscles (strain/sprain), tendons and spinal discs. It covers both the microscopic and gross anatomy in tissue morphology and tissue repair morphology with evidenced based explanations. The course also goes into detail of how trauma creates permanent pathology from a spinal biomechanical engineering standpoint. Furthermore, the program combines the spinal biomechanical engineering principles (physics) with physiology (evidenced verified) to be able to age-date pathology while concurrently introducing new disc nomenclature using the same principles.

Module 1: Diagnostic dilemmas and connective tissue Morphology
Course Objective: The objective of this module is to be able to focus the history component of an examination to understand what the causal factors are in the etiology of the potential injuries and then triage accordingly. This will enable the doctor to focusing on both the primary and secondary complaints ensuring a complete examination. The second part of the module is to get the doctor to understand the morphology of connective tissue disorders to be able to accurately prognose injuries.

Module 2: Ligament anatomy and injury research and spinal kinematics
Course Objective: The objective of this module is to understand the anatomy of spinal ligaments in the cervical and lumbar regions of the spine. The module then goes into the research regarding the wound repair process and what it does to the ligament s from a kinematics and spinal biomechanical engineering perspective. It covers how disparate regions effect one another in a single organ model.
