This new 2nd Edition provides revised and updated information on the latest pain procedures being performed in todays practices. The authors present a simple how-to approach for the various procedures discussed, ranging from soft tissue injections and casting to the newer peripheral nerve and spinal blocks used in pain management. This edition is much larger and more comprehensive than the 1st edition. The revised title is more indicative of the books contents and appeals to a wider range of medical specialties dealing with pain management. Many chapters have been expanded and either include additional or new authors. New chapters contain more in-depth discussions of drugs, radiation safety, complications, medicolegal issues, botulinum toxin injections, and radiofrequency procedures. The section on myofascial pain and trigger point injection provides greater detail on injection procedures. New radiographic photos are featured in the expanded spine injection section. Gross specimen comparisons are now included in the section on peripheral nerve injection.
