— 01 / Overview

Understanding
Chronic Back Pain.

Chronic low back pain involving the facet joints or intervertebral discs is among the most common causes of long-term disability in the United States. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) procedures are an investigational, non-FDA-approved option being studied for adults whose pain has not resolved with conservative pain management. The procedure is generally performed under image guidance to the level identified by the treating physician. Whether and to what extent any patient experiences benefit cannot be predicted in advance.

may approach this.

The description below is informational. Any specific protocol is a clinical decision determined by the treating physician based on the patient's individual evaluation.

An image-guided injection of an MSC-derived product to the level identified by the treating physician, in conjunction with a multimodal pain management plan.

— 03 / Who Inquires

Adults who typically
consult network physicians.

  • Adults with imaging-documented facet or discogenic findings
  • Adults with persistent pain after conservative care
