Description

Key Features

• This is a unique atlas with contributions from international experts describing the most simple and advanced pain intervention techniques in a stepwise manner.
• The atlas provides a clear guide to identify the bony structures as seen on fluoroscopic examination enabling the operator to perform the spinal interventions safely.
  Remember: Bone is our Eye and Friend when performing spinal interventions under fluoroscopy.
• Chapters are consistently designed—covering indications, contraindications, equipment needed, and procedural steps—with the text presented in a bulleted style.
• Including several cases in some of the spinal intervention chapters will prepare the readers to overcome the challenges and the variability that are encountered in clinical practice.
• Some of the ultrasound-guided techniques described will enable readers to consider performing some pain-relief procedures in remote settings where fluoroscopy or CT guidance is not available.
