Abstract
An experienced chiropractor could identify a subset of patients with angina pectoris as having cervicothoracic angina. Systematic manual palpation of the spine and thorax could be used as part of the clinical examination together with basic cardiological variables to screen patients with chest pain allowing for improvements in referral patterns for specialist opinion or angiography.
