Norway’s commitment to ensuring the efficient integration of new health technologies is underscored by its national framework known as the “New Methods” framework. This framework mandates a rigorous evaluation process for all innovations before they receive funding within the specialist health service.

In a significant development in September 2023, the Ordering Forum for “New Methods” extended an invitation to stakeholders interested in magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MRgFUS). This innovative technology has applications in treating intracranial tumors, neurodegenerative diseases, and managing pain related to bone metastases.
