[Taiwan Pain Medicine Association/ Beyond Dual-Image: X-ray - Ultrasound Guidance Top Showdown] [Academic Exchange] 2024-1-29

Author: Wang Bo

Thanks to the Taiwan Pain Medicine Society for organizing the [Beyond Dual-Image: X-ray-guided ultrasound Top-Tier Showdown] course, and to all the speakers for their teaching; I benefited greatly.

Particularly rewarding aspects of this course included: intraspinal duct adhesion and dissection, C0-1-2 facet joint injection for cervicogenic headache, trigeminal nerve block, out-of-plane needle tip localization, and the differences between ultrasound and X-ray needle tip position, among others.

I am also deeply grateful for the dedication of the cadavers, which gave me the opportunity to perform many challenging and potentially dangerous procedures. I aspire to become more proficient in using various image-guided techniques on patients with spinal joint pain.
