Figure 3: Three-dimensional contour plots. Left: Three-dimensional map for ex vivo findings shows relationship between treatment duration (x-axis), applied power (y-axis), and short-axis coagulation diameter (z-axis). Note that coagulation diameter continues to increase even after 8 minutes. Right: For the in vivo short-axis coagulation diameter, the greatest increase in coagulation occurs within 8 minutes, with a relative plateau for longer treatment durations.
