The Intracept™ Procedure by Boston Scientific

What is the Intracept Procedure?

The intracept procedure is a minimally invasive designed to target the basivertebral nerve (BVN) for the relief of chronic vertebrogenic low back pain. Vertebrogenic pain is a distinct type of chronic low back pain caused by damage to vertebral endplates, the interface between the disc and the vertebral body.
