Automatic control of finite element models for temperature-controlled radiofrequency ablation

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The finite element method (FEM) has been used to simulate cardiac and hepatic radiofrequency (RF) ablation. The FEM allows modeling of complex geometries that cannot be solved by analytical methods or finite difference models. In bot...
