What is C-Arm?
A C-Arm is a portable X-ray imaging device commonly used in hospital operating rooms and emergency rooms for accurate diagnosis. It is a surgical imaging diagnostic tool that provides real-time information, including the condition of the skeleton and nerves, as well as the presence, size, and location of lesions.

What is neuroplasty (SPEN)?
Neuroplasty (SPEN) is a leading non-surgical treatment that effectively addresses post-surgical syndromes such as herniated lumbar and cervical discs. Its main advantages include minimal scarring, few side effects, and high stability, allowing for repeat treatments when necessary.
The procedure involves inserting a special, ultra-small catheter, with a diameter of just 1 mm, into the epidural space of the spine through the spaces between the vertebrae. This catheter delivers a specially formulated medication directly to the area causing pain. Neck neuroplasty, in particular, is a highly specialized and challenging procedure performed at only a few hospitals in Korea. It is a safe option even for people with conditions that make other procedures risky, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or heart disease. Additionally, it offers the benefit of fewer side effects and minimal scarring post-procedure.
