Plus, since you’re still in the office, you’ll avoid an additional facility fee you would otherwise incur by visiting another location to have your pain management treatment.
What is Fluoroscopy?
Fluoroscopy is a digital imaging technique allowing physicians to view what is basically a live motion X-ray of the musculoskeletal system.
Viewing this real-time X-ray with fluoroscopy technology helps ensure accurate needle positioning during procedures, meaning medications are delivered precisely where they need to be to provide maximum relief from chronic and acute pain.
