Design and evaluation of a magnetic resonance‐guided focused ultrasound system for the treatment of cervical spine pain
The neck-specific MRgFUS system was able to target and ablate the cervical facet joints and monitor the treatment in real-time. The results suggest that this system has the potential for non-invasive treatment of facet joint related neck pain.
