Thermal data were analysed using InfRec Analyzer NS9500 standard software (Nippon Avionics Co. Ltd). Data were expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. The paired Wilcoxon single-rank test was used to compare differences between the mean temperatures of resecting and preserving areas. A P-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. All analyses were performed using JMP pro 11.2 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA).
