AI Technical Summary
Current treatments for chronic lower back pain are often costly, addictive, temporary, and ineffective, with limited surgical eligibility and inadequate relief for most patients, and lack effective methods for real-time assessment of nerve ablation efficacy.
The use of biomarkers to assess pain and nerve ablation efficacy, combined with robotic systems for precise nerve modulation, including radiofrequency energy delivery to create specific lesion shapes within vertebral bodies, facilitating minimally invasive and accurate treatment of the basivertebral nerve.
This approach provides a safe, effective, and minimally invasive method for chronic lower back pain relief by quantitatively assessing treatment efficacy and allowing for precise nerve modulation, reducing recovery time and complications.
