title: Evaluation of percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy for hepatic artery injury.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the in vivo efficacy of 915 MHz percutaneous coagulation in the treatment of hepatic artery injury.
  
  
  METHODS
  After inducing hepatic artery injury, 8 dogs in each group underwent 915 MHz microwave percutaneous coagulation therapy and 8 dogs were injected with batroxobin and α-cyanoacrylate.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The hemostatic effects of 915 MHz microwave were better than drug injection, and the amount of bleeding was significantly lower (p < 0.05). Pathological examination showed that vessel wall necrosis were greater.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Contrast ultrasound guided 915 MHz microwave percutaneous coagulation treatment has potent hemostatic effects in the repair of in vivo hepatic artery injury.
