Renal Tumors: MR Imaging–guided Percutaneous Cryotherapy—Initial Experience in 23 Patients

Abstract

MR imaging-guided percutaneous cryotherapy of renal tumors shows promise for the treatment of selected small renal tumors, and MR imaging can be used to monitor the treatment intraprocedurally. This technique may prove useful for ablation of renal tumors completely in one session, but long-term follow-up is needed.
