Abstract. We introduce a new, efficient approach for modelling the deformation of organs following surgical cuts, retractions, and resections. It uses the extended finite element ...

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...
In this paper, we present computationally efficient algorithms for the real time simulation of minimally invasive surgical (MIS) procedures. To develop a surgical simulator for tr...
