Fluoroscopy-guided Intradiscal Radiopaque Gelified Ethanol Injection Using an Anteroposterior View Compared to an Oblique View: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: This study introduces a new fluoroscopy-guided intradiscal radiopaque gelified ethanol injection technique using the antero-posterior view and compare it to conventional oblique view. Intradiscal procedures, are minimally invasive techniques that aim to reduce pain associated with lumbar disc herniation by modifying the disc material and decreasing pressure on surrounding nerves.

Objectives: This study introduces a new fluoroscopy-guided intradiscal radiopaque gelified ethanol injection technique using an anteroposterior view compared to the conventional oblique view.
