Treatment of focal benign lesions of the bone: MRgFUS and RFA.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of MR-guided focused ultrasound surgery and radiofrequency ablation in the management of bone and soft-tissue lesions. Musculoskeletal interventional radiology represents an interesting option for the treatment of benign bone and soft-tissue lesions to avoid the invasiveness of surgery and related risks. The imaging techniques now available, besides representing an optimal guide, allow control of the temperature reached in the region of interest, avoiding or minimizing damage to the sensitive structures surrounding the lesion.
