In today’s increasingly complex health care environment, practicing doctors of chiropractic are being called upon to address new demands and expectations in patient care, documentation and case management decisions. Because of this new wave of demands and challenges, advanced Diplomate credentials in Applied Sciences, Imaging and Thermography hold even greater importance and significance.  The ICA Council on Chiropractic Imaging and ICA Council on Thermography are parts of a consortium with the Council on Applied Chiropractic Sciences.  Doctors listed in these sections of the ICA Applied Sciences Referral Directory have maintained a current status through continuing education credentialing and other criteria including membership in the Councils.
