New analytical and hybrid heat transfer models for thermal ablation procedures validated by MRI thermometry

Abstract

Although approximate and not yet ready for <i>in vivo</i> clinical application, the proposed models offer fast, voxel-level temperature reconstructions. Their computational efficiency supports further development toward real-time monitoring and procedural adjustment during thermal ablation.
