Could your back pain be coming from your facet joints?
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA), sometimes referred to as a rhizotomy, is a minimally invasive procedure that may help relieve pain caused by the facet joints in the spine.
Before recommending RFA, your physician will perform a diagnostic facet joint injection to determine whether those joints are the source of your pain. If you experience significant relief from the injection, you may be a candidate for RFA.
The procedure targets the small nerves that carry pain signals from the facet joints and may provide longer-lasting relief for the right patients.
Every patient is unique. Treatment recommendations are based on your clinical evaluation, physical examination, imaging findings, and medical necessity.
