MRI monitoring of the renal denervation procedure. a Coronal view of a plane in the near field of the ultrasound beam for animal 7. The enlarged inset indicates an area that accumulated thermal dose with potential necrotic damage. The total volume with potential damage in this animal was 123 mm3. The values for all animals are given in Table 3. b Corresponding enhancement around the transverse process denoted by the white arrow is seen at the slice location in a post-ablation delayed contrast-enhanced T1w image. The approximate insonified area is represented by the dashed white line (a gap is present so as to not obscure the non-enhancing area)
