Abstract
Pitfalls for the interventional radiologist can be broadly categorized as planning errors, perceptual errors, interpretative errors, and technical errors. This chapter will focus on the common and serious pitfalls which can occur during musculoskeletal intervention during bone augmentation procedures such as vertebroplasty, thermoablation of tumors, and spinal injection. The pitfalls pertaining to ultrasound-guided intervention, arthrography, and biopsy will be discussed elsewhere within the relevant chapters of this book.
