A percutaneous path is established into a selected bone, e.g., a vertebral
body, having an interior volume occupied, at least in part, by cancellous
bone. A first bone filling material is conveyed through the percutaneous
path into a region of the cancellous bone. A second bone filling material
is conveyed through the percutaneous path into the region. The second
bone filling material is different than the first bone filling material.
