From: MR-guided microwave ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC): is general anesthesia more effective than local anesthesia?

Fig. 2

A patient completed MR-guided MWA treatment under general anesthesia. a-b The liver caudate lobe (red arrow) has a diameter of 17 mm and appears as hyper-intensity on T2-weighted transverse images before MWA. c-e The trajectory of the tilting puncture were adjusted gradually for the lesion target under the guidance of T1WI and the image shows precise insertion of the antenna into the target. f After 1 day of MWA, magnetic resonance reexamination found the treatment border covered the lesion completely as hyperintensity on T1WI (dashed circle). g Follow-up for 1 month, the lesion (red arrow) was completely ablated
