Fig. 5From: Technical advance in silico and in vitro development of a new bipolar radiofrequency ablation device for renal denervationIn silico FEM prediction of blood temperature after 60 s of RF ablation inside the renal artery flowing from the negative to the positive electrode. The blood temperature is predicted to be unaltered from the average body temperature of 37 °C, while thermal dispersion is predicted from the positive electrode and in the direction of the blood flow, which raises the arterial wall temperature to 41.1 °CBack to article page
