title: Application of radiofrequency treatment in practical pain management: state of the art.
abstract: Many therapeutic interventions for chronic pain are available, and decisions about optimal management are not easy to make. Radiofrequency (RF) treatment is classified as a percutaneous minimal invasive procedure for patients who do not respond to appropriate medical and physical therapy. Although RF treatment is widely used differences in current practice exist due to ongoing controversies.
