Abstract:
Objective To explore ways for expanding the now-limited coagulation volume of percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy(PMCT) in liver in order to enhance the complete necrosis rate of large hepatic tumors with obviously fewer punctures. Methods Fresh pig livers in vitro and rabbit, pig livers in vivo with and without blood supply were coagulated using the self-designed HM-WIA microwave coagulator to make clear antenna length, microwave power, coagulation time and blood flow influence the microwave volume(MCV).Results The device enlarged the MCV by 3 times using single electrode with an antenna of 36 mm in length along with microwave power of 45-55 W and coagulation time of 15-19 min,the short axis of the coagulation area was 5.6 cm in vitro, 5.3 cm in vivo with no blood supply.The antenna 36 mm in length was proved the best in keeping the finest coagulation shape.The MCV was 2.8 times as large without blood supply as with it (P
