Tiny beads vs. shoulder pain: can blocking blood flow help heal tendons?
NCT ID NCT06095050
Summary
This study is testing whether a minimally invasive procedure called lipiodol embolization, combined with physical therapy, works better than physical therapy alone for people with long-lasting, severe shoulder pain from tendon problems. The procedure involves injecting tiny particles to block small, overactive blood vessels around the painful tendon. Researchers will compare pain levels and shoulder function in both groups over one year to see which approach is more effective and safe.
