Selective Nerve Root Block / TFESI
A diagnostic and therapeutic injection that delivers medication precisely around an irritated spinal nerve root.
A selective nerve root block (also called transforaminal epidural steroid injection, or TFESI) delivers a targeted dose of anti-inflammatory medication around a specific spinal nerve root.
