North American Spine partnered physicians performing several minimally invasive procedures to make a small incision in the sacral hiatus. Then, the doctor inserts an optical fiber tube with an attached camera into the spinal canal. At the same time, a video-guided catheter with a high-powered laser device is also inserted. The spinal canal is then able to be visualized by the physician, who in turn can identify and diagnose spinal issues. If a herniated disc is found, the North American Spine partnered physician uses the laser to effectively "shrink" the disc. Once the discs have been "shrunk" by the laser, the pressure on the nerve is supposedly relieved, thereby alleviating the pain.
