Introduction<\/h4>\n

Without an accurate diagnosis, no effective treatment.<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div> [vc_column_text css=””]In medicine, diagnosis is an essential intellectual process.<\/p>\n

This is particularly true for the shoulder, a complex joint whose injuries can affect the bone, cartilage, tendons or ligaments.<\/p>\n

With an accurate diagnosis, we must be able to provide an effective solution to the patient who comes to see us.<\/p>\n

For 40 years, my diagnosis has been based on 3 successive steps: listening, clinical examination of the patient, and specific imaging.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1588999210453{padding-top: 50px !important;}”][vc_tta_accordion style=”flat” shape=”square” color=”grey” gap=”20″ c_position=”right” active_section=”1″][vc_tta_section title=”01.
