Three-dimensional assessment of vascular cooling effects on hepatic microwave ablation in a standardized ex vivo model

Abstract The aim of this study was a three-dimensional analysis of vascular cooling effects on microwave ablation (MWA) in an ex vivo porcine model. A glass tube, placed in parallel to the microwave antenna at distances of 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 mm (A–V distance), simulated a natural liver vessel. Seven...
