This book provides an overview of the evidence that underpins history taking, physical examination, specific tests and diagnostic imaging in patients with musculoskeletal disorders that consult primary care.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAlongside this book there is a website presenting videos showing the up-to-date performance of diagnostics that are regarded valid together with their psychometric properties. In the introduction, we present various ways of clinical reasoning followed by three chapters on 'validity', 'reproducibility' and the differences between a single test compared to a combination of tests. Next the chapters each deal with the diagnostic of patients with low back pain, hip, knee, foot\/ankle, neck, shoulder, elbow and hand\/wrist pain. Each chapter starts with a case study and ends with a conclusion that reflects on the case study presented. In addition, in each chapter attention is paid to red flags (alarm signals) that could be an indicator of serious pathology.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEvidence based diagnostics of musculoskeletal disorders\u003c\/i\u003e offers a wealth of information for physiotherapists, general practitioners, students and other people with professional interest in the actual evidence underpinning the diagnostic strategies in patients with musculoskeletal disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eArianne P Verhagen is a physiotherapist, manual therapist and clinical epidemiologist by background.
