MRI-guided Focused Ultrasound : Feasibility Study for the Treatment of Bone Metastases and osteoïd Osteoma

The transducer is maintained by a flexible/rigid structure, consisting of a support base, and three to four feet forming an arch around the area to be treated. These feet exist in several lengths (10, 20, 30, 40 cm) depending on the area to be treated and can be easily mounted on the base by fast attachment. The structure is based on the principle of granular jamming: it is flexible in its normal state, and can be stiffened by the application of depression within the feet.
