The 3-day meeting will provide information and skills of take-home value that you can put to immediate use in practice. Topics include radiofrequency ablation; updates on advanced interventional procedures; treating patients with challenging conditions, including fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and headache; neuroscience; psychology; physical medicine and rehabilitation; practice management including coding/compliance, managing a variety pain practice settings, and issues pertaining to patient retention and risk management; hands-on ultrasound and fluoroscopy workshops including regenerative medicine, advanced interventional techniques (vertebroplasty, percutaneous spine decompression), and surgical practicums; and targeted interactive sessions on intrathecal therapies, professional development, diagnostic imaging and electrodiagnostics.
