Epidural enhancement is a medical procedure used to improve the effectiveness of epidural steroid injections for managing pain, particularly in conditions like herniated discs or spinal stenosis. It involves the injection of a contrast agent or a specific medication directly into the epidural space, which can help visualize the area using imaging techniques like fluoroscopy or MRI. This approach aims to enhance the delivery of steroids and other medications to targeted areas, potentially providing better pain relief and reducing inflammation.
