[Infiltrations, blocks and neurolysis in musculoskeletal pathology]

Abstract

Computed Tomography fluoroscopy for blocks and neurolysis provides a minimally-invasive, accurate and rapid alternative to surgery. Spinal and peri-spinal ultrasound-guided procedures, excluding peripheral procedures, will be discussed as well. The imaging-guided procedures discussed are performed using small needles. These percutaneous procedures must be performed with maximum patient comfort and cause as little complications as possible. These procedures should be performed by an experienced radiologist after discussion with the treating clinician.
