Dallah Hospital Al-Nakheel announces establishment of the ‘Image guided Musculoskeletal Therapy Center’

Saudi Arabia - Due to the community's need for non-surgical treatment options using interventional bone x-ray technology, Dallah Hospital Al-Nakheel announced the establishment of a "Non-Surgical musculoskeletal Treatment Center" as the first outpatient center specialized in this field using musculoskeletal interventional radiology techniques at the level of the private sector in the Kingdom.

Interventional musculoskeletal radiology is a medical specialty that includes a package of procedures under the guidance of medical images without surgical incision, with the aim of accurately reaching the goal without traditional surgery.

Regarding the details of the use of interventional musculoskeletal radiology in various treatments, Dr. Mohammad bin Abdulaziz AlFaqih, a consultant interventional musculoskeletal radiologist and founder of Image guided Musculoskeletal Therapy Center at Dallah Hospital Al-Nakheel, says: "Interventional musculoskeletal radiology techniques are used to pinpoint the area of the problem utilizing high-tech radiology machines, and therefore targeted treatment is done in the area causing the pain without traditional surgery, resulting in accurate outcomes and a high success rate. Dallah doctors utilize ultrasound or x-ray technologies to precisely reach the target via a tube or a small needle.

These non-surgical methods can help with joint pain and can also improve function in people with osteoarthritis and non-surgical sports injuries,
