One video below.  Click the black title link above (if you can’t see the video).

1)  Right C4/5 intraarticular facet injection under fluoroscopic guidance - it is of particular importance to note the contrast spread.  It should NOT blob up under the needle tip, but rather should spread out along the joint line and into the capsule recesses at either end (as it does in this video)
