Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are ineffective against primary and secondary malignant hepatic tumors. Surgical resection has been considered the only potentially curative option, but few patients with hepatic tumors are candidates for surgery. Recent results suggest that radiofrequency thermal

## Abstract ## Purpose To evaluate the use of a 980‐nm diode laser for magnetic resonance‐guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MR‐guided LITT) ablations in liver tissue in an in vivo porcine model. ## Materials and methods MR‐guided guided LITT was performed on nine juvenile pigs placed un

In order to apply interstitial laser ablation to relatively small liver tumors in humans, it will be necessary to optimize the irradiation schedule. Nd:YAG laser was applied to normal rabbit liver in vivo at various power and energy outputs, including a protocol in which irradiation was repeated twi
