Over the last several decades, the volume and range of therapeutic musculoskeletal (MSK) interventions that radiologists can offer their patients has dramatically increased. With new materials and improving imaging modalities, as well as significant investment in research, the field of MSK interventional radiologic intervention will likely continue to expand. In this article, we summarize the range of interventions currently available to the MSK radiologist. We also seek to explore new and emerging techniques that may become commonplace in the near future while considering the challenges that may lie ahead in the field of MSK radiology.

Effectiveness of Virtual Reality for Pain Management in Musculoskeletal Disorders Across Anatomical Regions: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Musculoskeletal Care
March 2025
Laboratory of Healthcare Innovation Technologies, IRCCS San Camillo Hospital, Venice, Italy.
Introduction: The use of virtual reality (VR) in physiotherapy is expanding across various fields; however, while extensively researched in neurology, its application in musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders remains underexplored. This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of VR in pain management across different anatomical regions.
Materials And Methods: The research was conducted using the MEDLINE (via PubMed), Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase databases, including randomized controlled trials that evaluated the effectiveness of VR interventions, encompassing immersive VR, specialised non-immersive VR, and gaming platforms.
Comparing CT-like bone images based on FRACTURE MR with CT in pediatric congenital vertebral anomalies.

From the Department of Radiology (H.N.M., F.B.G.), Bai Jerbai Wadia Hospital for Children, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
Background And Purpose: Congenital vertebral anomalies are commonly associated with underlying spinal cord anomaly which necessitates imaging both the spinal cord and the bony vertebral column to understand the extent of the deformity better. While MRI is the gold standard for spinal cord imaging, it does not provide CT-like bone details. Many MR bone imaging techniques have been tested in various adult spine conditions in the past decade but not much has been described on their reliability in pediatric spine.

Article Synopsis
- The ESSR updated its 2015 consensus on soft tissue tumor imaging due to advancements in technology and updated classifications.
- A panel of 46 radiologists from 12 European countries used a validated Delphi method to reach consensus on imaging strategies, resulting in high agreement on 47 statements.
- Key findings highlight that MRI is preferred for monitoring soft tissue sarcomas, with chest CT recommended for assessing metastasis and interventional radiology playing a role in treating specific cases.
First contact physiotherapists: are they able to reduce the burden on rheumatology services? A critical review of the evidence base.
Rheumatol Adv Pract

First contact practitioners have emerged over recent years in response to growing pressures within the National Health Service (NHS) and are now central to primary care musculoskeletal (MSK) services. Within the MSK field, these allied health professionals can be from a range of disciplines, including physiotherapy, podiatry and osteopathy. Early referral to rheumatology is key to successful long-term management of many inflammatory MSK conditions, but presents challenges to overburdened services.
