About this book

This comprehensive review covers the full and latest array of interventional techniques for managing chronic pain.  Chapters are grouped by specific treatment modalities that include spinal interventional techniques, nonspinal and peripheral nerve blocks, sympathetic interventional techniques, soft tissue and joint injections, and implantables.  Practical step-by-step and evidence-based guidance is given to each approach in order to improve the clinician's understanding.  Innovative and timely, Essentials of Interventional Techniques in Managing Chronic Pain is a critical resource for anesthesiologists, neurologists, and rehabilitation and pain physicians.


Reviews

“This is a comprehensive book of interventional techniques commonly used to treat chronic pain conditions. It is well illustrated and, best of all, it makes an honest attempt to provide strength of evidence for each intervention. … This is one of a number of books on interventional techniques, but none focuses on anatomy as much as this one does and none include the level of evidence for each procedure. This alone makes this book worth buying and reading.” (Tariq M. Malik, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2018)
