Abstract

Magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is a noninvasive modality that allows for precise tissue ablation with sparing of surrounding structures. Early reports of the use of MRgFUS for the treatment of facet joint osteoarthritis are promising. We present a case of facet joint pain treated successfully by MRgFUS at our institution. Magnetic resonance imaging-guided focused ultrasonography may be a useful modality for patients with facet joint-mediated low back pain, particularly in the setting of limited or refractory response to conventional treatments.
