Noninvasive release of tendons using MRI guided focused ultrasound: a hybrid therapy using long-pulse focused ultrasound followed by thermal ablation

Noninvasive release of tendons using MRI guided focused ultrasound: a hybrid therapy using long-pulse focused ultrasound followed by thermal ablation

Introduction Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound (MRgFUS) thermal ablation is an effective noninvasive ultrasonic therapy to disrupt in vivo porcine tendon but is prone to inducing skin burns. We evaluated the safety profile of a novel hybrid protocol that minimizes thermal spread by combin...
