Abstract

Ultrasonography (US) has recently been used more frequently during interventions involving the lumbar spine. However, physicians who are more familiar with musculoskeletal US targeting muscles, tendons, and nerves may find it challenging to perform US-guided lumbar spine interventions using only bony landmarks. This study described the use of color Doppler US for the visualization of the lumbar spinal blood supply to identify vascular landmarks in addition to bony landmarks and thus more easily and accurately perform lumbar spine interventions.
