In patients scheduled for thoracic surgery or upper abdominal surgery, investigators will determine the accuracy of the epidural catheter placement by using fluoroscopic imaging. Previous studies have drawn contradictory conclusions based the potential flaw assumption of 100% success rate for correct epidural catheter placement in the thoracic region.

Fluoroscopic imaging. For patients undergoing thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) with catheter placement for pain associated with thoracic or upper abdominal surgery
Contrast media (5 mL) will be injected through the catheter and fluoroscopic images will be obtained and saved in the lateral and antero-posterior projections.
