Figure 5From: Finite Element Analysis of Hepatic Radiofrequency Ablation Probes using Temperature-Dependent Electrical Conductivity Electric Field Strength Distribution. Plot of the electric field strength along the active portion of the radiofrequency ablation probe when a source voltage of 20.0 volts is applied. The highest electric field strength corresponds to the proximal edge. Note: Constant conductivity with (green) and without (red) tissue perfusion overlap, as do temperature- dependent with (black) and without (blue) tissue perfusion.Back to article page
