Lumbar or Sacral Facet Joint Injection (1 Level)
A lumbar or sacral facet injection is a pain management procedure where a doctor injects a diagnostic or therapeutic agent into a facet joint (joint connecting two spinal vertebrae together) at the lumbar or sacral level. The doctor may also give the injection for nerves innervating that joint while using imaging guidance of either fluoroscopy or CT scan. The goal of this procedure is to treat spinal pain or to identify the exact source.
