Optimization of low- and high-power MWA to create reproducible coagulation volumes similar to RFA. Animal livers were exposed by laparotomy using a subcostal incision. RF and MW probes were placed in the liver, and treatment was as follows: RFA (70°C × 5 minutes), longer-duration lower-power MWA (5 W × 2 minutes), or shorter-duration higher-power MWA (20 W × 15 seconds). Treatment areas (arrows) were reproducible and similar between all treatment groups.
