Linear endovenous energy density (LEED) should always be quoted with the power used in endovenous thermal ablation - results from an in-vitro porcine liver model study.

Background: Linear Endovenous Energy Density (LEED) is the energy used per cm of vein in endovenous thermal ablation (EVTA) but does not include time. This study examines the effect of time during EVTA.

Method: EVTA was performed in a previously validated porcine liver model.
