Byung-Jo Kim 교수의 연구실은 척추 및 말초신경 질환의 정밀 진단과 치료를 위한 신경영상 및 전기생리학적 기법을 중심으로 연구를 진행하고 있습니다. 특히 초음파 유도 봉우리 척추부위 주입, 척추부위 신경의 정상 기준치 설정, 척수 반사 기능 평가 등을 통해 통증의 기전을 규명하고자 하며, 센트럴 시스티나이제이션과 같은 통증 메커니즘에 초점을 맞추고 있습니다. 연구는 임상적 적용 가능성을 고려한 실용적인 진단 기법 개발에 기반하고 있습니다.

Although it entails a radiation hazard risk, the use of fluoroscopy during caudal epidural steroid injection has increased to help place the medication more accurately and allowed physicians to maximize the procedure's therapeutic success rate. To investigate the feasibility of using real-time high resolution ultrasonography for guiding the epidural needle into the caudal epidural space and to confirm any vascular intake of medication, we performed color Doppler ultrasonography while medication
The lower extremity nerve CSA values obtained in this study may provide normal reference values for the Asian population.
Paraspinal fibrillation potentials or positive sharp waves (PSWs) reportedly may be the only electrodiagnostic abnormality in patients with radiculopathies. However, spontaneous activity may be present in muscles of asymptomatic subjects. To determine whether abnormal spontaneous activity in the cervical paraspinal muscles is clinically relevant, we evaluated the prevalence of such activity in asymptomatic individuals and examined its relationship with age. Sixty-six asymptomatic subjects underw
The pathogenesis of fibromyalgia (FM) has not been clearly elucidated, but central sensitization, which plays an important role in the development of neuropathic pain, is considered to be the main mechanism. The cutaneous silent period (CSP), which is a spinal reflex mediated by A-delta cutaneous afferents, is useful for the evaluation of sensorimotor integration at the spinal and supraspinal levels. To understand the pathophysiology of FM, we compared CSP patterns between patients with FM and n
