Using Body Mass Index to Predict Needle Length in Fluoroscopy-Guided Lumbar Punctures

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Predicting the appropriate needle length to use in oblique interlaminar-approach fluoroscopy-guided lumbar punctures in patients with a large body mass index is difficult. Using the wrong needle length can lead to an increased radiation dose and patient discomfort. We hypothe...
