Image Intensifier

The Image Intensifier, also known as the C -Arm due to the obvious shape, is used during live procedures to enhance and pin point areas of the body on which the treatment is to be administered.

Here at the Newcastle Clinic we mainly use the Image Intensifier for pain relief injections. These include nerve root blocks and facet joint injections.

Pain Relief Procedures through Image Intensification

Image Intensification is a non invasive procedure and is therefore used by patients as an alternative to surgery. It can be used when the patient is not suitable for or too high risk for surgery. It can also be used by patients prior to surgery to provide pain relief.

Benefits include

• Enhanced View
• Pin Point Accuracy
• Readily Accessible
• Wide Range of Use
