title: [Indications and methods of peri-radicular therapy and facet block].
abstract: A CT-guided pain therapy can be an additional tool in cases with vertebrally caused problems and lesions. The axial CT scan in the altered vertebral segment allows a controlled puncture of the radicular or articular regions and a helpful pain therapy with different injections. The procedure is performed in outpatients.
