Following a successful cadaver workshop in 2021, NSANZ is pleased to offer two hands-on Cadaver Workshops in 2022. The two workshops will be held in Sydney at Macquarie University on Saturday 5 March 2022.

The cadaver workshops will feature hands-on aspects of neurostimulation and radiofrequency (RF) interventional pain procedures. The programs will each be a full day program featuring a half day cadaver lab session and half day didactic lectures from experts in both forms of interventional procedures.

The Radiofrequency (RF) Workshop:

Focus on radiofrequency ablation technique of the spine (lumbar, sacral, thoracic and cervical). The workshop will also feature radiofrequency procedures for craniofacial pain, shoulder, hip and knee along with sympathetic plexus. Along with conventional RF, it will also feature cooled RF, pulsed RF and bipolar RF technique.

The Neurostimulation Workshop:

Focus on various implanting techniques for thoracolumbar, sacral and cervical spinal stimulation. The workshop will also feature peripheral nerve stimulation, dorsal root ganglion stimulation, multifidus muscle stimulation, intrathecal drug delivery system, surgical implant and suturing station.
