This book explores the rapidly growing subspecialty of regenerative medicine in pain management. It provides concise guidelines and instruction for healthcare providers interested in implementing this novel therapy. The book contains three sections and begins with a thorough introduction to the field. Additionally, section one examines various therapies such as stem cell collection, allograft therapies, and bone marrow aspirations. Section two then delves into the medical diagnosis and procedural guidance methods, including ultrasound imaging, discography, local anesthetics, and anticoagulation medications. Following this, section three concludes the book with numerous discussions on standardized treatment paradigms. A unique, first-of-its-kind book, Regenerative Medicine seeks to inspire medical practitioners to integrate this subspecialty into pain management therapies and treatments.

This book is a comprehensive guide to Targeted Drug Delivery (TDD), also known as Intrathecal Drug Delivery (IDD), and offers an overview to this unique form of treatment. The medication is delivered by intrathecal pumps and is less common than some other techniques for interventional pain management, but is essential in conditions such as refractory pain, cancer pain, multifocal pain, severe spasticity, and in patients who are not candidates for surgical correction of their underlying condition.This book is the first source to describe both the optimal surgical implantation and patient management aspect of this therapy, and thus will be a valuable single reference guide for interventional radiologists, anesthesiologists, physiatrists, oncologists, neurologists, spine surgeons, palliative care physicians, and primary care physicians.
