    Congratulations! You’ve finished your study and are ready to write your manuscript. But how do you write and publish a quality research paper or case study? What happens in peer review? Dr. Robert Levy, Editor-in-Chief of the journal Neuromodulation, walks us through the process of becoming successfully published, from hypothesis and study design to discussion and conclusion. He also unmasks the peer review process and how to address reviewer comments.

    Dr. Standiford Helm provides a detailed presentation on the efficacy of adhesiolysis for revealing pain form spinal stenosis. He explains the pathology of stenosis, the mechanism of action of adhesiolysis, and the many pathologies for which this is effective. Using current research, Dr. Helm explains how this procedure mitigates epidural scarring and reduces inflammation.

    Dr. Ira Fox lectures on the lysis of adhesion procedure (of which he has performed over 13,000). He explains how the medication is delivered to the targeted nerve and why the skill of the physician is so important. He then goes over the full procedure using the caudal approach with the aid of fluoroscopic slides.

    Dr. Jan Van Zundert discusses recent events that have caused the loss of insurance coverage for radiofrequency ablation for facet pain. He explains how JAMA’s Mint RCT findings has caused this sudden loss of coverage, and how these findings are in conflict with other studies, including a guideline by The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). He then explains the many ways in which the Mint study is flawed.
