Ultrasound: A novel alternative technique for cervical epidural space visualization—A pilot study [PDF]
Background: Neuraxial ultrasound (US), a newer modality, can be used for neuraxial imaging, helping in visualizing and aiding in epidural space catheterization. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the US for cervical epidural access and

Adhesions in the epidural space caused by frequent epidural blocks [PDF]
We report a case of adhesions in the epidural space caused by more than 200 times epidural blocks that were observed with epiduroscopy. A 41-year-old man had repeatedly undergone lumbar epidural blocks to treat pain in his leg, resulting in decreased ...

Localization of epidural space: A review of available technologies
Although epidural analgesia is widely used for pain relief, it is associated with a significant failure rate. Loss of resistance technique, tactile feedback from the needle, and surface landmarks are traditionally used to guide the epidural needle tip ...
