Vertebral augmentation consists of minimally invasive techniques indicated in the treatment of vertebral compression fractures (VCFs). These compression fractures cause vertebral body height loss and consequent significant pain and are…
The use of antithrombotic agents is increasing in infants, children and adolescents. The more recent routine inclusion of children in FDA-monitored clinical trials has propelled the rapid accumulation of safety…
Cancer patients experience pain at significant rates but are often undertreated—it is estimated that less than 1% of eligible cancer pain patients receive appropriate targeted drug delivery to address their…
Chronic abdominal visceral pain management often requires multidisciplinary collaboration. Image-guided visceral nerve interventions may be critical in the management of visceral pain refractory to medical treatments. Abdominal and pelvic pain…
An epidural steroid injection (ESI) is a minimally invasive, image guided procedure for the treatment of back pain. Pain originating in the lumbar spine is the most common referral for…
Musculoskeletal (MSK) pain leads to significant healthcare utilization, decreased productivity, and disability globally. Due to its complex etiology, MSK pain is often chronic and challenging to manage effectively. Disparities in…

Symptoms arise when narrowing of the spinal canal, lateral recesses, or intervertebral foramina impinge upon the neural structures that traverse the spinal column. Pathology involving the structures that make up…
An image guided robot only becomes fully useful with integrated software leveraging image fusion. Image fusion is the process of registering and superimposing imaging data in the same coordinate space…
Interventional Radiology is at the forefront of integrating advanced imaging techniques and minimally-invasive procedures to enhance patient care. The advent of Digital Health Technologies (DHTs), including artificial intelligence (AI), robotics,…
