Abstract:
Musculoskeletal intervention has significantly evolved over the last decade. A major reason for recent advancements could be attributed to the widespread use of image-guided techniques utilizing computed tomography, fluoroscopy, and ultrasonography. This change improved the approach of needles to the areas of pathology and decreased complication rates. This article reviews basic principles of the common image-guided diagnostic and therapeutic techniques as they relate to patients with musculoskeletal disease.
