Eligibility Criteria: Inclusion Criteria: * Radiologic evidence of bone metastases (BM) from any solid tumors in patients with age ≥ 18 years * Patient capable of giving informed consent and able to attend study visits * All target lesion (s) at intended treatment site accessible for MR-HIFU Distance Skin-lesion (target) \> 1 cm * Patient has 1-3 painful lesions, and only the most painful lesion will be treated * Weight \< 140 Kg * Intended target volume visible by non-contrast MRI * Patient able to characterize pain at site of target lesion (s), before and after the procedure. * MR-HIFU treatment date ≥ 2 weeks from last local treatment of the target lesion Exclusion Criteria: * Planned treatment lesion is a primary bone tumor Patient enrolled in another clinical study related to bone metastases treatment or pain relief treatment * Unable to tolerate required stationary position during treatment * Need for surgical stabilization in case of (impending) fracture (lytic lesion in weight-bearing bone larger than 50% of bone diameter) * Pregnant woman * Pain related to target lesion is predominantly due to fracture or impending fracture * Pain related to target lesion is due to involvement of a neighboring major nerve by the metastatic tumor (cord or nerve compression) * Target \< 3cm from bladder / bowel / nerve along the beam path and \< 1cm in the plane orthogonal to the beam * Target in contact with hollow viscera * Target located in skull, joints, ribs (when HIFU beam overlapping with lung), spine (excluding sacrum which is allowed) or sternum. * Scar along proposed HIFU beam path * Internal or external fixation device along the proposed HIFU beam path or at the target * MRI contraindicated (e.g. paramagnetic implants, pacemaker, claustrophobia) * MRI contrast agent contraindicated (e.g. previous anaphylaxis or glomerular filtration rate \< 30 ml/min/1.73m2) * Sedation contraindicated * Clinically relevant medical history or abnormal physical findings that could interfere with the safety of the participant as judged by the treating physician or investigator.
