What is another word for disc biacuplasty?

Pronunciation: [dˈɪsk bˈa͡ɪəkˌʌplɐsti] (IPA)

Disc biacuplasty is a minimally invasive procedure designed to provide symptomatic relief of chronic back pain caused by degenerative discs. Also known as intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET), disc biacuplasty utilizes radiofrequency energy to thermally ablate painful nerves within the intervertebral disc. Although disc biacuplasty is a well-established treatment option, there are other synonyms that refer to similar procedures, such as disc denervation, nerve ablation, intradiscal radiofrequency ablation, and thermal annuloplasty. These techniques aim to disrupt the transmission of pain signals from the affected area and are useful for patients who want to avoid invasive surgical procedures. As such, disc biacuplasty synonyms essentially denote a range of minimally invasive techniques that aim to provide long-lasting relief from chronic back pain.
