Understanding the Procedure

The role of imaging guidance

Ultrasound may show selected joints, tendons and superficial soft tissues during an appropriate pain procedure.

Suitability depends on diagnosis, imaging findings, symptoms and overall health.

Before diagnostic sampling

Understand the sample, planning and follow-up

Planning Image-Guided Pain Procedure around the clinical question

Image-Guided Pain Procedure is considered after the referral, symptoms and relevant imaging have been reviewed. The procedure team needs to confirm that the proposed approach addresses the treating clinician’s question and is appropriate for the target anatomy.

Previous ultrasound, CT, MRI, angiography or laboratory reports may change planning. Bring the most recent records and a current medicine list so preparation can be individualised.

Preparation, observation and the next clinical step

Fasting, blood tests, medicine instructions, local anaesthesia, sedation and observation vary by procedure. Do not stop prescribed medicines unless the treating or procedure team provides specific advice.

Recovery and follow-up depend on the treated area and clinical condition. The procedure report should be reviewed with the treating team together with symptoms, laboratory findings and subsequent imaging where advised.

Image Guidance

How image guidance helps

Imaging supports localisation and planning, but it does not eliminate procedure-related risks or guarantee a diagnostic or treatment outcome.

  • Imaging can help localise selected targets and surrounding structures.
  • Guidance does not eliminate procedure-related risks or guarantee symptom relief.
