Figure 10

The last step of the sequential analysis of the electroporation process for six electrodes. The same parameters as in Figure 9 were used, except for ϕ = 0°. The electric field distribution is shown for a plane perpendicular to electrode insertion 2 cm deep in muscle tissue. The black contour represents the muscle area that has been reversibly electroporated, i.e. area where the conductivity values have changed according to (3). Due to ratio problem, the contour for irreversibly electroporated muscle tissue is left out of the figure; however it is approximately the same as the dark red coloration surrounding the electrodes.
