Lumbar Medial Branch Neurotomy





LumbarCool™ Pain Management System for RF Lesioning in Lumbar Medial Branch Neurotomy

The LumbarCool™ Pain Management System uses the Cooled-RF platform to provide an anatomy specific solution for lumbar medial branch neurotomy.


  • Large-volume, anatomy specific lesion encompasses the groove at the base of the superior articular process (SAP).
  • Large-volume lesion encompasses medial branch nerve in one pass, eliminating the need for multiple passes.
  • Distally projected Cooled-RF lesion enables a perpendicular cannula approach towards the familiar “eye of the Scotty dog” target.
  • Simple and familiar technique, consistent with the Medial Branch Block technique.
  • Offers an alternative approach to placement with the active tip perpendicular to the target nerve.



LumbarCool™ Probe

  • Internal Cooling:

    • > Internally water-cooled radiofrequency probe allows for the creation of large-volume, spherical lesions.

    > Cooling maintains the desired temperature at all times, while eliminating tissue charring at the probe tip.

  • Radiopaque Marker:

    • A radiopaque marker is located at the proximal end of the active tip. This marker defines the lesion location under fluoroscopy, confirming position and enhancing visualization.

  • Thermocouple:

    • The temperature sensor at the end of the probe tip ensures an appropriate thermal gradient in the target tissue.
