Popis: Interventional radiology procedures are being increasingly used to mitigate chronic pain. In addition to established therapies such as thermal bone lesion ablation, kyphoplasty, and chemical neurolysis, ongoing research has shown promising results for the use of embolization in treatment of osteoarthritic knee pain and chronic pain secondary to adhesive shoulder capsulitis. This review will highlight some of the most common interventional radiology pain procedures, as well as provide insight into future pain-relieving embolization.
