Pain can interrupt life’s everyday pleasure, but you don’t have to live with it. Did you know there are innovative, cost-effective options to better analyze and treat back and joint pain? Center for Diagnostic Imaging (CDI), in partnership with Radiological Associates of Duluth physicians, specialize in medical imaging to diagnose pain and in procedures to treat its root cause – all in a relaxed and comfortable setting in Duluth.

Get out of pain and into life.
Most of us will experience back or joint pain at some point in our lives. How we deal with that pain is very much up to us. Know your options! Your back pain may heal on its own, with rest, exercise and pain medicine, but in some cases chiropractic adjustment, physical therapy or surgery might be needed to return you to your active lifestyle.

Did you know you have another option?
Image-guided diagnostic injections and pain management procedures are clinical procedures done in an outpatient setting with minimal downtime. They are often successful on their own, or might assist in relieving your pain enough to have chiropractic adjustments or do the physical therapy. Injection procedures can also be used pre-surgery to create a “map” of your pain sites, or post-surgery to help you manage residual pain.

Talk with your doctor
Talk through your pain issues with your doctor so together you can make decisions about next steps. Image-guided diagnostic injections and pain management procedures require a doctor’s written order. We’ll work with your physician to help determine which, if any, imaging exam or injection procedure is right for you.
