About this study
This trial is testing whether fluoroscopy or ultrasound guidance is better for a procedure called cooled radiofrequency ablation (cRFA) of the knee geniculate nerves in people with osteoarthritis. The goal is to see if one method provides more accurate targeting and, therefore, potentially better results compared to the other.
Based on ClinicalTrials.gov records.
