MRI-guided percutaneous sclerotherapy of venous malformations: initial clinical experience using a 3T MRI system

Clinical Imaging Apr 25, 2020

O'Mara DM, Berges AJ, Fritz J, et al. - The present study was attempted to assess the utility, efficiency, and outcomes of MRI-guided sclerotherapy of venous malformations (VMs) using a 3T MRI system. This analysis included a total of six patients with VMs in the neck ( n = 2), chest ( n = 1), and extremities ( n = 3) who had undergone sclerotherapy with 3 T MRI guidance. Via estimating the technical success rate and procedural efficiency, feasibility was assessed. Planning, targeting, intervention, and total procedure times were applied to assess the efficiency. Researchers evaluated outcomes by assessing VM volumes before and after sclerotherapy, patient-reported pain scores, and occurrence of complications. With promising initial technical success rates, procedural efficiency, and therapeutic outcomes without complications, 3T MRI guidance was found to be a feasible method for percutaneous sclerotherapy of VMs.
