Comparison of ablated zone in MR images and specimens at different time points. MR images include the T1WI plain scan (first column), the T2WI plain scan (second column), and the contrast-enhanced T1WI (third column). Tissue specimens (fourth column) were obtained after executing the pig at the planned time point. Different representations of the ablated zone in MR images and specimens at the same time after ablation are also displayed. The first row contains representations instantly after ablation. The second row contains representations 1 week after ablation. The third row contains representations 2 weeks after ablation. The fourth row contains representations 3 weeks after ablation. The fifth row contains representations 4 weeks after ablation
