Effects Of Saline Infusion On The Lesion Size During The Radiofrequency Ablation Of Liver Cancer
Published in 2015
In this study, a computational model is developed and solved using COMSOL Multiphysics software to estimate the lesion size during saline-infused RFA. Transport of saline is set up by modifying the Poisson equation and the convection-diffusion equation [3] under the Mathematics module. Heating during RFA is set up based on the Joule heating module. To describe the lesion size, the two-state cell death model is used [4]; which is set up using the ODE module. The RFA treatment considered is temperature-controlled [5] and the Events module is used to facilitate with its implementation.
