Abstract

Painful spine degeneration is extremely common and one of the leading causes of disability in the United States. Effective management requires a multidisciplinary approach, with treatment options ranging from conservative medical surveillance to surgical decompression. Since their introduction in the 1970s, spinal corticosteroid injections have progressively gained popularity as an adjunct, minimally invasive method for pain control in patients with a variety of degenerative spine conditions. With advances in spine imaging and image-guided techniques, the interventionalist is now able to precisely target and treat spinal pain generators, though not without some small risk to the patient. Consequently, a detailed understanding of spinal anatomy, specific injectable medications, and image-guided techniques is paramount in order to provide successful and safe spinal injections for patients with various degenerative spine ailments.
