X-Ray Guided Injection Treatment in London

Home / Services / Injections / X-Ray Guided Injection

X-ray guided injections deliver safe, accurate relief for spinal and nerve-related pain. Real-time X-ray (fluoroscopy) imaging for precise needle placement uses contrast dye used to confirm the correct needle position.

This is essential for injections near spinal nerves and the epidural space. It improves accuracy compared to landmark-based techniques and minimises risk to surrounding nerves and blood vessels.

Dr Purnajyoti Banerjee provides expert care, supported by a detailed assessment.

Typically used for epidural, nerve root, facet joint, and sacroiliac injections, this method offers reliable results when needed.
