The Technique of Intradiscal Injection: A Narrative Review.

Background: Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common spine diseases and represents the most frequent cause of absence from work in developed countries. Approximately 40% of chronic LBP is related to discogenic origin. The goal of the study is producing a review of literature to describe analytically the techniques of intradiscal injections.

Magnetic source imaging and reactivity to rhythmical stimulation in tuberous sclerosis.

The present study combined functional magnetoencephalography (MEG) and anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) information in three patients affected by tuberous sclerosis and partial epilepsy. MEG recordings were performed during both spontaneous and visual evoked activity. The former showed a large variety of complexes whose spatial and temporal distribution suggested different neuronal populations acting simultaneously in the same focal district.
