Abstract:Interventional techniques for pain treatment have importantly increased in recent years, and particularly those based on radiofrequency energy, both thermal and pulsed. This report clarifies some important concepts about electrical phenomena involved during using these techniques, given a comprehensive explanation about types and modes of applying RF energy. Moreover, guidelines about the patterns of affected zones are defined dependent on the chosen arrangement. From a physical point of view, equations govern… Show more
differences were reported. Conclusions: both treatments control pain in the short term; there is also an improvement in physical abilities. The morbidity accompanying neurolysis either radiofrequency or cryoablation is very low.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
