Introduction

Image guided interventions of the thyroid gland have been enjoying a Renaissance in the United States over past 5 years. Thermal ablation, which has long been a mainstay of interventional oncology, has been adapted for use in the treatment of both benign and malignant thyroid tumors. Much of the foundational work in this area was pioneered in Italy and Korea almost a decade ago.1,2 Since that time, the techniques have spread through Europe and Asia, expanding in North and South America more recently.
