Abstract. Surgical simulations with the aid of computers is a topic of increasingly extensive research. Realtime response and interactivity are crucial components of any such syste...
Exophthalmia is characterized by a protrusion of the eyeball. The most frequent surgery consists in an osteotomy of the orbit walls to increase the orbital volume and to retrieve a...

: The biomechanical properties of soft tissue derived from experimental measurements are critical for developing a reality-based model for minimally invasive surgical training and ...
In this paper we propose an open source/open architecture framework for developing organ level surgical simulations. Our goal is to facilitate shared development of reusable models...

A 3D biomechanical model of the tongue is presented here. Its goal is to evaluate the speech control model. This model was designed considering three constraints: speech movement s...
Realistic tissue models require accurate representations of the properties of in vivo tissue. This study examines the potential for tactile imaging to measure tissue properties an...
