Narouze S et al. – US imaging can be used to obtain well–defined images of the cervical neural foramina with real–time visualization of the spinal nerves and vessels and may improve the safety of the technique. It may facilitate identifying anomalous critical vessels at unexpected locations relative to the intervertebral foramen and avoiding injury to such vessels, which is the leading cause of the reported complications from cervical nerve root injections.
