Ultrasound-Guided Neuromodulation Is Non-inferior to Fluoroscopy Approach for Painful Diabetic Neuropathy: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) for treating painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) compared to fluoroscopy-guided procedures. Their findings indicated that ultrasound guidance was non-inferior in achieving pain relief and showed additional benefits such as fewer needle insertions and reduced radiation exposure, supporting its use in clinical practice for PDN treatment.
