Book Description
The text surveys important procedures necessary for a pain practitioner to treat an oncologic patient. Specific guidelines for indications and procedure descriptions along with anatomical and image-guided descriptions are included in each chapter. Chapters address both acute cancer related pain syndromes and treatment related pain syndromes. New interventional options such as percutaneous cordotomy and radiofrequency ablation of vertebral bodies are also detailed. This book functions as a practical aid and should appeal to established pain practitioners as well as pain practitioners in training.
