Time versus temperature curves from data acquired at the focus in the coronal (cor; blue), sagittal (sag; red), and transverse (tra; green) planes for a 80 W exposure of a 12 mm diameter cell over 36 s, and b 190 W exposure of a 4 mm diameter cell over 16 s. Solving the regression equations for the cooling portions of the curves (to the right of the black dashed lines) indicated that tissue temperature would return to baseline (22.5 °C as measured by PRFS) within 5 min for a 12 mm cell and 2.5 min for a 4 mm cell
