All patients who had received inpatient gradual diagnostics in our department
Exclusion Criteria:
facet joint infiltration
Correlation of radiologic findings and reported pain relief
Pain relief is assessed as an improvement in % on the NRS. Radiologic findings consist of numerous classification systems and measurement techniques to evaluate and classify spinals and neural foramen stenosis, like for example as suggested by Schizas, or the sagittal diameter of the spinal canal
Time frame: Improvement in pain level within 24 hours
