Reviews
From the reviews:
“This instructional book describes how to perform musculoskeletal injections using image guidance with actual image visualization. It reviews in detail how to perform each procedure … and includes useful templates for accurate medical record documentation, billing, and coding. … the book appears to be written for physicians in training or practicing physicians in fields that involve performance of musculoskeletal injections. … The book is useful, with its step-by-step guide, illustrations that demonstrate actual patient position, fluoroscopic views, ultrasound views, and anatomic views using skeletal models.” (Andrew L.
