Spinal injections have been demonstrated to be effective short-term treatments with cost–utility superior to numerous other treatments, including surgical procedures. Appropriate patient selection—based on clinical and imaging finding—and the use of image guidance associated with technical precautions improve the safety and effectiveness of spinal injection and overall patient outcomes.
