The purpose of this article is to describe the use of MRI to safely monitor cryoablation for the treatment of spinal epidural malignancies.
Use of MRI guidance to monitor percutaneous cryoablation allows ablation margins more distinct than those allowed by heat-based ablation modalities. MRI-guided cryoablation is a feasible option for treating epidural tumors involving the spinal canal, resulting in successful decompression of the tumor away from the spinal cord with regrowth of previously eroded bone around the spinal canal.
本文旨在描述使用 MRI 安全监测冷冻消融治疗脊柱硬膜外恶性肿瘤。
使用 MRI 引导监测经皮冷冻消融可使消融边界比热消融方式更清晰。MRI 引导冷冻消融是治疗椎管内硬膜外肿瘤的一种可行选择,可成功减压肿瘤远离脊髓,同时椎管周围先前侵蚀的骨得以再生。
