Atlas of Image-Guided Intervention in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine

by James P. Rathmell MD

Overview

The Atlas of Image-Guided Intervention in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine is a practical guide for practitioners who perform interventional procedures with radiographic guidance to alleviate acute or chronic pain. The author provides an overview of each technique, with detailed full-color illustrations of the relevant anatomy, technical aspects of each treatment, and a description of potential complications. For this revised and expanded Second Edition, the author also discusses indications for each technique, as well as medical evidence on the technique's applicability. The new edition features original drawings by a noted medical artist and for the first time includes three-dimensional CT images that correlate with the radiographic images and illustrations for a fuller understanding of the relevant anatomy.

Editorial Reviews

"There are quite few books available on pain injections that are heavy on either text or images. This book is happy marriage of both. It's a nice introduction to pain procedures for anyone pursuing a career in interventional pain management."
