Abstract: Percutaneous RF ablation is one of alternative treatment for non-surgical liver tumors. Ablative changes in hepatic tissue can be successfully estimated using the finite element method. The authors created a 3D model of a multi-tine applicator immersed in liver tissue, and then determined the optimal values of voltage applied to such an RF electrode, which do not exceed the therapeutic temperature range valid during thermal ablation procedure. Importantly, the simulations were carried out for the RF electric p… Show more

“…This thermal damage Ω can further be converted into a new evaluating index, the degree of tissue injury α, which have a value range between "0" with no damage and "1" with a complete damage to tumor cells [40] α(x, y, z,t) = 1 − e [−Ω (x,y,z,τ)] .…”
