Computational modeling of tissue surgery

Working within the overall context of biomechanics, researchers from various disciplines offer information on the different methods for modeling, simulating, and analyzing hard and soft tissue as an aid to developing tools that can provide a meaningful input in medical practice. They discuss how experimental results from a bone chamber are complemented with simulations of a computational model, using real geometry microCT images for reconstruction, three-dimensional geometry reconstruction, making the reconstruction of a femur with osteoporosis and modeling the effects of anti-resorptive drugs, femur behavior with an implant, the influence of different modeling factors in numerical simulations of the situation before and after hip implant surgery, modeling pre-surgery planning in dentistry and urology, evaluating knee ligament reconstruction using numerical modeling, and developing simulation platforms.
