Summary
The provider uses advanced software to create a 3D simulation of one or more liver lesions and surrounding tissue to plan the microwave ablation procedure. This simulation includes calculating the volume of tissue that will be ablated, overlaying the ablation plan onto CT images of the liver, and comparing the volumes before and after the procedure to ensure the treatment was effective.
