Clinical pathological review of histological samples is the gold standard for identification of tissue damage. For the development of new magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) procedures, in vivo post-treatment imaging assessment techniques require correlation to histopathology. Our study presents methodology and preliminary preclinical results of a new MRI-registered whole mount histology technique for efficacy evaluation of MRgFUS therapies.
