Only part of the story? Mechanistic insights into dye-based spread models
Interfascial plane blocks often provide broader and longer-lasting analgesia than can be explained by the visible spread of injectate on imaging, raising questions about how local anesthetics truly distribute within tissues. In this cadaveric study,[1][1] quantitative analysis using high-performance
