Abstract:Objective: The deformation field inside the soft tissue is useful to predict and track the specific target of needle insertion. Finite element (FE) provides a sensorless way to reconstruct the deformation field inside soft tissue. However, the time-consuming model meshing makes it difficult to automate the reconstruction during needle insertion operation. The purpose of this work is to present a numerical method that can automatically reconstruction of deformation field of large-deformed soft tissue during nee… Show more
