Back pain is a very common disorder, affecting many of us at some point during our life. Although pain is often temporary, it can become more persistent and debilitating.

BMSR offers comprehensive imaging of back pain. Imaging often involves an MRI, which will help your specialist in deciding the best course of treatment. In some cases, treatment involves minimally invasive injections either into the small joints of the back (facet joints) or around the nerve root that is thought to be causing the pain.
