The tissue impedance via time, and temperature distribution at t = 656 s, 956 s and 1300 s. (a) Tissue impedance via time of both models. Point 1 is when the first heating stops; point 2 represents the start of the second treatment of RF; point 3 is when the second heating stops; (b) Temperature distribution of tissue at the end of first treatment, t = 656 s; (c) Temperature distribution of tissue at the beginning of second RF treatment, t = 956 s; (d) Temperature distribution at the end of second RF treatment, t = 1300 s.
