Epiduroscopy?

[mmglobal]

LC in UK is talking about epiduroscopy. From BC's policy website:

Epiduroscopy, also known as epidural spinal endoscopy or epidural myeloscopy, is an endoscopic procedure in which the epidural space is explored for the purpose of diagnosing and treating spinal pain, specifically radicular pain. A steerable or controllable flexible endoscope is used to examine the epidural anatomic structures to find epidural adhesions, fibrosis and scars, and to provide precision directed therapy.

The may also be done in conjunction with RACZ or other procedures. There is a ton of info available online... much of it looks like sales info from pain clinics offering this procedure. Google Search results here

It will be interesting to see how the discussion goes... I'll see if I can get some of the docs to comment.
