Pain Management
Interventional Radiology (IR) is a specialty within radiology, which offers therapeutic help for pain management. IR procedures are minimally invasive, and offer patients shorter recovery time and minimal risk when compared to most surgical options.
IR treatments are precisely targeted and because they use a minimally invasive techniques under fluoroscopy and ultrasound to guide a needle or catheter to the source of pain or disease, many procedures can be done on an outpatient basis. In some cases, the patient is even able to continue with their day as usual after their procedure. There are no large incisions to heal, and infection rates are significantly lower with minimally invasive procedures than with open surgery.
IR pain management techniques are very effective for many types of spine and neck pain and some types of musculoskeletal pain. Depending on the source of the pain, IR techniques may be used to diagnose, deliver pain relief, or, in some cases, treat the underlying cause while providing pain relief.
If you’re suffering from chronic or acute pain caused by a known injury or illness, Naadi Healthcare offers many innovative types of IR treatments to provide you with effective pain management.

Procedures
Epidural Steroid Injection
Facet Joint Injection
If multiple levels of pain exist within the facets, several injections may be required to pinpoint the pain source in each location. This pain relief will enable you to undergo necessary conventional treatment, such as physical therapy, to rehabilitate your back.
Kyphoplasty
Nerve Root Block
You must have symptoms present for this procedure to be effective. If you are not experiencing symptoms prior to your procedure, please cancel your appointment and reschedule the exam once your symptoms have returned.
Sacroiliac Joint Injection
Trigger Point Injection
Stellate Ganglion Block
Vertebroplasty
The fractures are typically caused by decreased bone density also known as osteoporosis, but occasionally tumors arising from the spread of breast cancer, lung cancer, or non-cancerous tumors of bone such as hemangiomas, etc. can be treated to reduce the pain. The procedure is not used to treat ruptured/herniated discs or other types of degenerative spine disease.
Facet Nerve Injection
By anesthetizing these nerves, the physician can determine whether the nerve irritation should be treated with medication or by radiofrequency (RF) rhizotomy. Pain relief varies for each patient ranging from short-term to long-term relief.
