Abstract
STANDARD RADIOLOGICAL METHODS: Standard imaging modalities for percutaneous minimally invasive therapy are ultrasound, fluoroscopy and computed tomography. METHODICAL INNOVATIONS: Magnetic resonance imaging is becoming increasingly more popular for minimally invasive procedures. The advantages are high soft-tissue contrast, the possibility of free selection of multiple imaging slices, multiple tools for intrainterventional monitoring and the absence of ionizing radiation for the patient and the interventional radiologist. ACHIEVEMENTS: Magnetic resonance imaging is a promising imaging modality for minimally invasive procedures. The most common clinical applications are thermoablative procedures for treatment of hepatic, renal and prostatic malignancies.
