Level II, prospective comparative study.

really crappy study.
not blinded.
and the biggest negative is who did the ultrasound injection.
Fluoroscopy clearly showed a higher success rate of intra-articular sacroiliac joint injection.

in this study, fluoro was superior to US. but of course, the usual defense will be "well, it has to be done in the hands of an expert ultrasonographer".
which kind of sounds like the same talk that PRP can only be done by, um, Dr Centeno to be beneficial......
