Interventions for Interventional Radiology

Intrathecal Drug Delivery for Chronic Pain

Intrathecal Drug Delivery (IDD) directs prescribed pain medications to the spinal cord—affecting primarily the presynaptic and postsynaptic receptors in the gelatinosa of the posterior horn of the spinal cord. For more information about Intrathecal Drug Delivery, please see the Indications, Safety and Warnings.

Spinal Cord Stimulation

Spinal cord stimulation alleviates pain by electrically activating pain-inhibiting neuronal circuits in the dorsal horn and inducing a tingling sensation (paresthesia) that masks the sensations of pain. For more information about Spinal Cord Stimulation, please see the Indications, Safety and Warnings.
