Background. Quantitative sensory testing (QST) has been used to predict the outcome of
epidural steroid injections in lumbosacral radicular pain and has the potential to be an …

Background It is possible that interruption of nociceptive input from intervertebral discs can
be modulated through bilateral L1 and L2 dorsal root ganglia (DRG) blockade. In order to …

Background Dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRG‐S) is used as a treatment for chronic low‐
back pain (CLBP), although its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. CLBP patients have …

Background Radicular pain is a common and debilitating clinical pain condition. To date, the
mechanisms of radicular pain remain unclear, partly because of the lack of suitable …

Objective The objective of this study is to review the available evidence for dorsal root
ganglion (DRG) stimulation for the treatment of complex regional pain syndrome type II …

Objective Epidural steroid injections (ESI) are the most commonly performed pain
procedures. Despite numerous studies, controversy continues to surround their …

Objective Dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRGS) received its first regulatory approval (CE
marking in Europe) in late 2011, and so its use is now almost six years old. Several …

Introduction Dorsal root ganglion stimulation (DRG‐S) has recently emerged as a novel
therapy in neuromodulation that demonstrated a higher rate of success than spinal cord …

IMPLICATIONS: Quantitative sensory testing has the potential to become an important tool in
the selection of appropriate treatment for lumbar radiculopathy and to assist in identifying the …

Introduction ACCURATE, a randomized controlled trial comparing dorsal root ganglion
(DRG) stimulation to spinal cord stimulation, showed that DRG stimulation is a safe and …
