A) Zone of coagulative necrosis in a patient as indicated by non-perfused tissue. The scan was acquired immediately after the patient received LITT for 3 min. at 13.75W. Further information can be found in Natarajan et al. (2017)¹¹. B) Phantom coagulation zone under T₂-weighted MRI showing major and minor axes (white arrows). Note that the catheters in the center and on the right contain the laser fiber and thermal probe respectively. C) Phantom coagulation zone under direct visualization showing major and minor axes (white arrows). Note the needle tracks in the center and to the right.
