doctors who deal with patients with chronic pain, as it offers courses for
anesthesiologists, rheumatologists, rehabilitation physicians, musculoskeletal
radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, and physicians who have
special interest in chronic pain medicine.
He pledged the academy's support to education, clinical treatment, and research
of all pain conditions to translate this knowledge into improved pain relief

this field.
The center and the academy, in cooperation with Jordan Palliative Care and Pain

management, delivered by a group of Jordanian, European and Asian experts and
doctors, which focused on state-of-the-art interventional pain treatment,
