Median (interquartile range); bnumber (percentage); MR-HIFU: MR-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound; tSSS: transformed symptom severity score (range 0–100); high scores indicate more severe symptoms; HRQoL: health-related quality of life (range 0–100); high scores indicate better quality of life; type 1: low signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging; type 2: intermediate signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging; type 3: high signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging; NPV: nonperfused volume. |
