Celiac ganglion block has been performed without radiologic guidance by surgeons or anesthetists since it was first described by Kappis [1] in 1914. Radiographic guidance for celiac block was first reported in the 1950s [2], and more recently, radiologists have used CT to guide needle placement [3-5]. With CT guidance, more directed positioning of the needle is possible, allowing alcohol to be deposited in the specific ganglion areas. This article reviews our collective experience with CT- guided celiac ganglion block.
