Abstract 

Percutaneous interventional procedures include a broad spectrum of minimal invasive techniques, which are a useful diagnostic and therapeutic tool. In this study we present our experience in CT-guided percutaneous musculoskeletal biopsies, drainages of musculoskeletal abscesses, facet and sacroiliac joint injection and radiofrequency thermal ablation of painful metastases or osteoid osteomas.

Keywords:  Musculoskeletal biopsies, Bone neoplasms, Radiofrequency ablation, Abscesses drainage, Joint injection, Ct guided percutaneous procedures
