Many of these procedures are used in pain management of the spine, shoulder, hip and knee. These include spinal facet joint blocks, nerve root blocks, medial branch blocks, epidural injections, joint injections, PRP, radiofrequency ablation and tissue biopsy. Please be aware you will not be able to drive after most CT procedures and therefore require a driver.
Many of these procedures are used to guide tissue biopsy and used in pain management of the entire musculoskeletal system. These include fine needle aspiration (FNA), tissue biopsy, bursal injections, joint injections, PRP, and radiofrequency ablation.
Ultrasound is most commonly used to biopsy suspicious breast lesions. When suspicious breast changes are not visible on ultrasound, a mammographic (either stereotactic or tomographic-guided) biopsy is performed. A MRI-guided breast biopsy is used when suspicious breast abnormalities visualised on MRI are not identified by mammography or ultrasound.
Please be aware that all procedures require an appointment. Please call us to arrange a time.
