Fluoroscopy-guided sacroiliac (SI) joint injections are safe and effective. This study shows a 97% intraarticular placement rate with a rapid mean procedure time of 108 seconds.

Area of Science:

  • Pain Management
  • Radiology
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Sacroiliac (SI) joint injections are a common procedure for diagnosing and treating low back pain.
  • Accurate needle placement is crucial for effective treatment and avoiding complications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and reproducibility of a fluoroscopy-guided technique for SI joint injections.

Main Methods:

  • A specific fluoroscopy-guided technique was used with patients in the prone position.
  • Needle placement was confirmed with nonionic contrast material injection.
  • The procedure involved precise angulation of the x-ray tube and needle insertion.

Main Results:

  • Out of 31 SI joint injections performed, 30 (97%) achieved intraarticular placement.
