Fluoroscopy
Helping patients deal with pain is a major part of our practice.
Our office includes a dedicated fluoroscopy suite where we use sophisticated imaging equipment to guide us in delivering spinal injections and performing other procedures for pain relief and diagnostic purposes.
Patients like the convenience of our on-site injections because they often can receive a pain-relieving block on the same day as their doctor’s appointment.
Injections
Injections provided on-site include:
- Diagnostic and therapeutic epidural steroid injections
- Facet injections
- Nerve blocks
- Sacroiliac (SI) joint injections
Spinal Cord Stimulator Trials
We also implant spinal cord stimulator trials on-site in our fluoroscopy suite. This provides an opportunity for patients with chronic pain to try this pain-relieving device – which masks pain with electrical signals – before receiving an actual implant. If the device proves helpful, the patient can opt to have a spinal cord stimulator implanted in a surgical procedure.
