  • Note:—TRF indicates total ablation time; TPT, total procedure time; NoS, number of RFA sessions; Cx, complications; PRF, the power of RFA; Rt, right; Lt, left; isth, isthmus.

  • a The largest diameter of the nodule before RFA.

  • b The percentage of remaining vascularized solid components of the nodule after RFA (in comparison with the original nodule before RFA).
