title: Percutaneous Image-Guided Musculoskeletal Tumor Treatments.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this article is to review the current guidelines and recommendations for percutaneous image-guided treatment of musculoskeletal tumors.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  With the ongoing technologic advances, it is essential that the musculoskeletal interventionalist is familiar with the current tools and techniques available for the treatment of soft-tissue and bone tumors. Fortunately, many of these tools are readily available in a standard interventional radiology department and can be easily applied to the musculoskeletal system.
