Dr. Antigone Argyriou is celebrating a major career milestone as she has now treated 100 patients for chronic vertebrogenic low back pain using the Intracept™ Procedure, a form of basivertebral nerve ablation. This milestone highlights her commitment to providing advanced spine care and expanding access to proven treatments that make a lasting difference in our community.
Chronic vertebrogenic low back pain is caused by damage or inflammation of the vertebral endplates, which can trigger ongoing pain through the basivertebral nerve. The Intracept™ Procedure is a minimally invasive outpatient treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to ablate, or deactivate, this nerve to stop pain signals at the source. Backed by strong clinical evidence, it offers hope to patients who have struggled to find relief through traditional methods.
“I’m glad to help so many patients find relief from chronic low back pain,” said Dr. Argyriou.
Reaching 100 Intracept™ patients is not just a number. It represents 100 lives improved and a growing opportunity to change the way chronic vertebrogenic low back pain is treated on Long Island. SpineMedLI looks forward to continuing to advance patient care through innovation and expertise.
