When doing an S1 TF ESI, I generally don't have problems finding the dorsal foramen. I will position my needle tip about 1-2 mm past the posterior aspect of the S1 vertebral body. My biggest challenge is that I struggle to get medial pedicular contrast spread with it instead often going laterally out the ventral foramen.
Any advice for how to reposition the needle in these circumstances to get better medial pedicle spread? What is the ideal target point on lateral imaging to get medial contrast spread?
