Ultrasound-guided injections in the middle and lower cervical spine.

Abstract:

:Injection therapies play a major role in the treatment of cervical pain and are becoming integral parts of a multidisciplinary approach in treatment and rehabilitation of such patients. Pararadicular- and facet-joint injections in the cervical spine are preferentially performed under computed tomography (CT) or fluoroscopy-guidance. In this article we present an alternative, simple and easy to learn step by step US-guided technique for injection therapy in the cervical spine.
