While most cases can be managed conservatively with physiotherapy and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, minimally invasive corticosteroid injections are the mainstay intervention for those not responsive to conservative treatment. Historically, spinal injections were performed in the absence of imaging guidance; however, imaging modalities, in particular fluoroscopy and computer tomography (CT), have become the standard of care in performing most of these procedures. Under imaging guidance, operators can accurately confirm needle placement and safely target localised pathologies. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/27244 | DOI: | 10.1111/1754-9485.13308 | ORCID: | 0000-0003-0540-4023 0000-0003-2475-9727 0000-0002-1663-4185 |
