Indication


This is a procedure used to both all three branches of one or more dorsal rami.[1] This can be done under ultrasound guidance and so is more readily accessible than the preferred fluoroscopically guided medial branch block. See {{#l:kimura2020 ultrasound guided total dorsal ramus block.pdf|Kimura et al}} for a free open access article on the technique.[2]
