[Oradlist] Reading Cephs for a chiropractor

Dania:
 
I believe this is outside of the scope of practice for OMFR.

 Hello everyone,
 
 I am hoping for a quick show of hands as to how many OMFRs:
 
a) would consider reading cephs for a chiropractor (ie thorough evaluation of the entire cervical spine and part of the upper thoracic spine).
b) have had such training incorporated into their practice.
 
Also, would this fall into the scope of practice of an OMFR?
 
These questions have arisen from a request by a chiropractor to interpret films for him. Although I feel confident of my knowledge of this area of the body, I'm not sure how it all plays out in the grand scheme (across dental/chiropractor boards lines).
 
 Dania
