Microwave ablation of the liver in a live porcine model: the impact of power, time and total energy on ablation zone size and shape

Microwave ablation of the liver in a live porcine model: the impact of power, time and total energy on ablation zone size and shape

Objective To explore various microwave (MW) time/power combinations to achieve maximum single-probe system performance in a live pig liver model. Methods Fifty-one microwave ablations performed in 12 female pigs using the following time/power combinations: 65 W for 10 min (65W 10MIN), ramped from 20...
