Description

In this episode of the Talking Rehab Podcast, I explore the crucial topic of image guidance in injections, comparing traditional landmark-based methods with more modern techniques using x-rays and ultrasound. As a sports and spine medicine physician, I've seen firsthand how technology can improve accuracy and patient outcomes, and I discuss why I believe image guidance should be the standard of care.

Here’s a breakdown of the episode:

• [00:39] - Introduction to image guidance in injections.
• [01:15] - Comparing landmark-based injections to image-guided injections.
• [03:00] - The pros and cons of using x-rays and ultrasound for guidance.
• [05:10] - My experience with both techniques and why I advocate for image guidance.
• [08:02] - The importance of accuracy in medical procedures and patient care.
• [13:02] - Why the cost and time involved in using image guidance are worth it.
• [16:00] - Key questions to consider about accuracy and information in clinical practice.

Join me as I delve into this important aspect of musculoskeletal medicine and challenge the status quo on how injections are performed.
