"Over time, that nerve regenerates. And that regenerated nerve is new, and wasn't there for the surgery, or wasn't there for the trauma. And so this is an ability to percutaneously—or through the skin with a needle—replace your damaged nerve."—J. David Prologo, MD, FSIR, on the potential of cryoneurolysis

In this episode, host Warren Krackov, MD, FSIR, speaks with J. David Prologo, MD, FSIR, about the efficacy and potential of cryoneurolysis in pain management, and Dr. Prologo's patient, Bo Thordarson, MD, about how this treatment helped resolve her long-term pain from a damaged nerve.
