Figure 2a: Graphs show short-axis coagulation diameters for microwave ablation of (a) ex vivo and (b) in vivo liver. For ex vivo coagulation, longer treatment durations result in continuing gains in short-axis diameter. In contrast, in vivo coagulation reaches a relative plateau by 8 minutes, with no substantial further increase in coagulation observed after longer treatment applications.
