This book explores the rapidly growing subspecialty of regenerative medicine in pain management. It provides concise guidelines and instruction for healthcare providers interested in implementing this novel therapy. 

The book contains three sections and begins with a thorough introduction to the field. Additionally, section one examines various therapies such as stem cell collection, allograft therapies, and bone marrow aspirations. Section two then delves into the medical diagnosis and procedural guidance methods, including ultrasound imaging, discography, local anesthetics, and anticoagulation medications. Following this, section three concludes the book with numerous discussions on standardized treatment paradigms. 

A unique, first-of-its-kind book, Regenerative Medicine seeks to inspire medical practitioners to integrate this subspecialty into pain management therapies and treatments.
