Echocardiography of two swine from the microwave ablation group 1 year following ablation. (A) and (B) show parasternal long-axis and short-axis views of swine with normal ablation, in which the ablation region was similar to the Morrow procedure. C and D show parasternal long-axis and short-axis views of swine with extensive ablation, in which the ablation region was similar to the extended Morrow procedure. The red arrow indicates the ablated region of the septum, which is hyperechoic and thinner
