Abstract:Purpose Understanding all factors that may impact radiation dose and procedural time is crucial to safe and efficient image-guided interventions, such as fluoroscopically guided sacroiliac (SI) joint injections. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of flow pattern (intra- vs. periarticular), patient age, and body mass index (BMI) on radiation dose and fluoroscopy time. Methods A total of 134 SI joint injections were reviewed. Injectate flow pattern, age, and BMI were analyzed in respect to fluo… Show more
