Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common diseases worldwide and is expected to increase in incidence as the age of the general population rises. Both oral medications, such as NSAIDs, and surgical treatments used for OA management have limitations. Demand is rising for minimally invasive techniques such as intraarticular injections and percutaneous interventions for use in place of or in conjunction with oral medications and surgical therapies, and the past 2 decades have seen a rapid expanse in both pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic minimally invasive OA treatments. Image guidance with fluoroscopy, CT, or ultrasound is often used in conjunction with these procedures to achieve precise treatment localization to achieve maximal therapeutic effect. The choice of modality used for image guidance is often influenced by clinician experience, patient characteristics, and equipment availability. This article reviews the mechanisms of action, contraindications, complications, and efficacy of conventional and developing minimally invasive OA treatments. The minimally invasive treatment options described in this Review include therapeutic injections such as antiinflammatory agents, viscosupplements, and biologics, as well as nonpharmacologic treatments of subchondroplasty, nerve ablation, genicular artery embolization, intraarticular pulsed radiofrequency therapy, and MRI-guided focused ultrasound therapy.
