ICRAPAIN 2025 Day 2 Hall A | Advanced Pain Interventions | Cancer Pain and More

pain conference

Introduction

Day 2 Hall A is the flagship track for advanced pain physicians seeking deep clinical insights into complex interventional pain techniques, cancer pain management, and precision-guided procedures. Building on decades of evidence and real-world expertise, this program highlights balloon neuroplasty, regenerative therapies, CT-guided pain interventions, opioid rotation, palliative strategies, and cutting-edge image guidance.
The day also features the celebrated “How I Do It” series, where top faculty reveal their step-by-step procedural workflows—including cryoneurolysis, vertebroplasty, PRP for rotator cuff tears, and scar entrapment treatments. Each session is designed to give actionable takeaways that pain specialists can directly integrate into their practice.

Oration By Pain Physician of The Year 2024 | The Mystery of Discogenic Back Pain

An inspiring keynote exploring the pathophysiology, imaging advances, and interventional strategies for discogenic low back pain. Gain updated perspectives on disc degeneration biomarkers, provocative discography controversies, and modern minimally invasive solutions.

Advanced Pain Interventions – Evidence & Innovation

This block delivers state-of-the-art procedural insights: from balloon neuroplasty in spinal stenosis to minimally invasive sacroiliac endoscopic procedures (MiSEPP), CT-guided injections, and regenerative disc therapy. Discussions cover safety, imaging selection (fluoroscopy vs CT), outcome optimization, and patient selection algorithms.

How I Do It: Live Procedural Insights

Faculty walk you through real procedural steps with practical commentary: infraspinatous barbotage, cryoneurolysis for trigeminal pain, vertebroplasty for vertebral collapse, PRP injections for rotator cuff pathology, and post-operative scar entrapment release. These sessions bridge the gap between theory and execution, empowering clinicians to adopt advanced skills safely and confidently.
