Zusammenfassung:A mechanism for adding or updating a heat distribution model stored in a heat distribution model database. A heat distribution model is usable to determine a heat distribution about an ablation device when it is operated, and can be usable to derive thermal profiles in the vicinity of the ablation device. The mechanism comprises obtaining information about fixed properties of the ablation device, generating a heat distribution model based on the fixed properties, and modifying the heat distribution model if, when used, a generated thermal profile is inaccurate.
