The modeling of soft tissue behavior is essential in haptic rendering for virtual reality based medical simulators, which provide a safe and objective medium for training medical ...
Abstract. We present a new algorithm for modeling and characterizing shape changes in 3D image sequences of biomedical structures. Our algorithm tracks the shape changes of the obj...

Abstract. This paper presents a fast image synthesis procedure for elastic volumes under deformation. Given the node displacements of a mesh and the 3D image voxel data of an undef...
One of the essential components of a virtual reality surgical simulation is deformation. Deformations in computer graphics and surgical simulations are commonly modeled with three...
