Conclusion
The values of LI drop and lesion width at 90° were significantly smaller
than those at 30° at the same ablation setting, although the lesion
depths were not different among the 3 angles for the MiFi and the
STABLEPOINT. They were correlated with maximum lesion width and lesion
depth at any angle, which could be a good predictor of the lesion size
by RF applications.
