Fluoroscopic and Ultrasound Guided Injections
Fluoroscopy (or “fluoro”) is simply a form of imaging much like an x-ray with the added advantage of capturing real-time moving images when necessary. This makes it extremely useful in variety of ways. It can be used for purely diagnostic purposes as well as intraoperatively. Flouroscopically guided injections are frequently done in both an out-patient surgical center setting or if equipped in your doctor’s office. Usually fluoroscopic suite fees apply (these are in addition to the cost of fluoroscopy itself).
