How Percutaneous Ablation + Vertebroplasty (Metastatic/Pain Relief) is performed
After image assessment and anesthesia method are determined, percutaneous puncture to the lesion is often performed under CT or fluoroscopy guidance, and energy ablation such as radiofrequency/microwave/cryoablation is selected. Biopsy can be performed if applicable; then bone cement is injected to enhance vertebral stability. Intraoperative monitoring of nerve and leakage risks. Postoperative observation of pain and range of motion, wound care and follow-up. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
