Role of ozone Disc Nucleolysis in Herniated intervertebral Disc : The Indian experience [abstract]
2018
Aim: To study the role of ozone disc Nucleolysis in herniated intervertebral disc 
 Materials: We retrospectively analysed consecutives patients undergoing ozone disc nucleolysis. There were Total of 5265 patients with 2740 males and 2525 females .their Age was ranging from 17yrs to 84 years. Patients weight was ranging from 36 to 138 kilograms. All the patients had failed conservative management for at least 3weeks. 
 Methods: All the patients were clinically evaluated as per inclusion and exclusion criterions. Pre-treatment Visual Analogue scale (VAS)and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI).All the patients undergone Pre-treatments work up of MRI of the spine.256 patients were underg…

The spinal column consists of vertebral bodies which together form 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, and 4 coccygeal vertebrae (see Transparency 1). A typical vertebra consists of two basic parts: the ventral vertebral body and the dorsal vertebral arch. Between the vertebral bodies are the intervertebral disks, which give the spinal column its flexibility. Together, the vertebral bodies and the intervertebral disks form a strong column supporting the head and trunk, while the vertebral arch protects the spinal cord. When the spinal column is viewed from the side, four flexures are visible: the thoracic and the sacrococcygeal flexures are concave ventrally, while the cervical and…
Case series of fluoroscopic findings and 3D reconstruction of human spinal MRIs of the space of Okada.
2020
Objective To better understand the unexpected spread of contrast medium observed by conventional fluoroscopic X-ray images during standard neuraxial techniques used in the treatment of pain. The support of 3D reconstruction of MRI images of structures within the lumbar spine was used to better understand the space of Okada. Methods Lumbar facet joint and epidural corticosteroid injections in five patients under fluoroscopic guidance with loss of resistance to air or saline to identify the facet joints or epidural space. Next, in a retrospective study, the authors examined the retrodural space of Okada and the neighboring tissues with 3D reconstruction of spinal MRIs of seven patients withou…
