Image-guided musculoskeletal interventions are frequently done in clinical practice. Even then, the literature regarding their effectiveness is relatively scarce. Image guidance adds value over the conventional landmark-based approach and should be preferred. We hereby try to list the commonly performed procedures along with the current practice guidelines regarding their clinical indications and periprocedural care.

Topographical Mapping of Metabolic Abnormalities in Multiple Sclerosis using Rapid Echo-less 3D-MR Spectroscopic Imaging at 7T.

Neuroimage

January 2025

High-Field MR Center, Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-guided Therapy, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria; Christian Doppler Laboratory for MR Imaging Biomarkers (BIOMAK), Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-guided Therapy, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

Objectives: To assess topographical patterns of metabolic abnormalities in the cerebrum of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients and their relationship to clinical disability using rapid echo-less 3D-MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) at 7T.

Materials And Methods: This study included 26 MS patients (13 women; median age 34) and 13 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (7 women; median age 33). Metabolic maps were obtained using echo-less 3D-MRSI at 7T with a 64 × 64 × 33 matrix and a nominal voxel size of 3.

Endometriosis is described as the proliferation of endometrial tissue outside of the uterus. This most frequently occurs within the pelvis and is a common cause of chronic pelvic pain in women of reproductive age. Rarely, endometriosis can manifest outside of the pelvis and can uncommonly involve the musculoskeletal and peripheral nervous systems.

Ultrasound-guided minimally invasive thread release of carpal tunnel: a cadaveric study.

Radiol Med

January 2025

Neuromuscular Imaging Ordinationszentrum Döbling, Heiligenstädter Straße 46-48, 1190, Vienna, Austria.

Purpose: Thread release of the carpal tunnel is the most recent of several minimally invasive ultrasound-guided carpal tunnel release techniques. The purpose of this article is to provide a step-by-step guide for minimally invasive, ultrasound-guided thread release of the carpal tunnel focused on transecting the transverse carpal ligament with minimal damage to the palmar aponeurosis on anatomical specimens.

Methods: Fifteen ultrasound-guided carpal tunnel thread releases were performed on the wrists of soft-embalmed anatomical specimens, which were dissected immediately after the intervention.

Objectives: To develop an EULAR training model for education in synovial tissue biopsy (STB) under ultrasound guidance (UG) following a stepwise approach: (1) development of educational material on UGSTB in large and small joints; (2) assessment of the validity, reliability and feasibility of the UGSTB educational procedure on cadaveric specimens; (3) validation of this procedure in live patients.

Methods: Using a nominal group (NG) and a DELPHI consensus methodology, educational audio-visual (AV) material and minimal requirements for education in UGSTB were developed by an expert panel. Then the experts performed an UGSTB on cadaveric joints using the developed approach.
