Sinopsis

Know What Confirms the Target Before the Injectate Goes In

Interventional pain practice turns on a decision made in silence: whether the image on the monitor proves the needle tip lies where the plan requires. This reference works through that decision target by target, from fluoroscopic geometry and sonoanatomy to neurolysis and implantable therapy, grounding every technique in the contrast pattern, the proving view, and the finding that mandates stopping. Written for pain medicine fellows and fellowship-trained proceduralists in early independent practice.

Twenty-eight chapters carry a five-part confirmation block at every procedural target, consolidated at the back of the volume into an indexed reference organized by region and procedure.

What This Volume Puts in Your Hands at the C-Arm

• Contralateral oblique depth control and contrast-pattern reading — separate epidural, subdural, intrathecal, and vascular placement before injecting
• Sonoanatomy, needle visualization, and hydrolocation — convert an inferred needle tip into an observed one at every soft-tissue target
• Cervical, thoracic, and lumbar epidural and transforaminal access — with the laminar line, pedicle border, and posterior-third limits that define each position
• Medial branch blockade and radiofrequency neurotomy from the atlanto-axial joint to the sacral ala — including the electrode orientation that decides whether a lesion includes the nerve
• Celiac, hypogastric, and ganglion impar neurolysis — with the contrast distributions that authorize an irreversible injection and the ones that stop it
• Chest wall, abdominal wall, and pelvic plane blocks mapped to the branches each plane carries, with weight-based dose ceilings for bilateral high-volume technique
• Vertebral augmentation, spinal cord stimulation, peripheral nerve stimulation, and intrathecal delivery — selection criteria, technique, and the failure modes that dominate each
• Complication recognition and rescue — the discharge instructions, out-of-hours routes, and records that determine outcome when prevention fails

Put the confirmation logic of experienced proceduralists on your procedure table.
