Department for Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, Lucerne Cantonal Hospital LUKS, Spitalstrasse, Lucerne, Switzerland.
Objective: To maximize local tumor control, stabilize affected bones, and preserve or replace joints with minimal interventional burden, thereby enhancing quality of life for empowered living.
Indications: Suitable for patients with bone metastases, particularly those with severe pain and/or fractures and appropriate life expectancy.
Contraindications: In primary bone tumors, refer to the sarcoma surgery team for evaluation of wide resection.

Pain management in interventional radiology (IR) encompasses a variety of advanced image-guided techniques to deliver minimally invasive treatments for various pain conditions. Key procedures include nerve blocks and neurolysis, which target specific nerves to provide substantial pain relief. Effective pain management in IR relies on a thorough understanding of regional anatomy, precise technique, and careful administration of local anesthetics, neurolytic agents, and corticosteroids.

Smartphones contain powerful and enabling technology components that can be re-applied toward procedural tasks commonly used in everyday clinical image-guided therapies and minimally invasive procedures that use three-dimensional information and feedback during procedures. Smartphone applications are a relatively young field of research that have potential in interventional radiology (IR) toward improvement of accuracy and standardization for needle-based procedures like biopsy and ablation. This review explores the adaptation of smartphones' built-in sensors for virtual and augmented reality uses in IR.
