An air discogram is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the internal structure of a spinal disc. During the procedure, air is injected into the disc, and imaging techniques such as X-rays or CT scans are used to evaluate the disc's integrity and detect any abnormalities. This information can help guide decisions about potential treatment options for spinal conditions.

What uses air pressure to work?
air
Air pressure is caused by?
Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air above pushing down on the air below. As altitude increases, there is less air above, resulting in lower air pressure. Temperature and humidity can also affect air pressure.
Does cool air flow over or under warm air?
Cool air typically flows under warm air due to the principle of convection, where cooler, denser air sinks while warmer, lighter air rises. This creates a cycle of air circulation where cool air replaces warm air near the surface.
When happens when cooler air and heated air interact?
The cool air will sink and the warm air will rise.
What makes the movement of air?
Differing air temperature causing cold air to sink, and warm air to rise is the main cause of air movement.

Discography is used to determine which disk level(s) is painful, and is usually used a precursor to surgery. A minimum of two disks will are injected. If you have x-ray findings of disk problems at many levels you may need more disks injected.
Discogram how much does it cost?
I was given a copy of the bill for mine that they sent the insurance company. It was $9104.00 total with sedation. I about fell over but from what I have seen now with some research it is on the high end of the cost range.
I have been told a discogram is billable as surgery because a needle was inserted into my spine. I was not cut into. Is this true?
Depending on your insurance carrier and the type of coverage you have, the answer should be yes. Any procedure that is invasive is considered surgery by virtually all insurers. That is especially true if it is group coverage through an employer. There are some exceptions depending on whether the plan is self-funded by the employer, the State you live in, etc. But the overall answer for most insurance plans should be that it would be covered.
