Computer assisted surgery systems intraoperatively support the surgeon by providing information on the location of hidden risk and target structures during surgery. However, soft tissue deformations make intraoperative registration (and thus intraoperative navigation) difficult. In this work, a novel, biomechanics based approach for real-time soft tissue registration from sparse intraoperative sensor data such as stereo endoscopic images is presented to overcome this problem.

This volume focuses on the biomechanical modeling of biological tissues in the context of Computer Assisted Surgery (CAS). More specifically, deformable soft tissues are addressed since they are the subject of the most recent developments in this field. The pioneering works on this CAS topic date from the 1980's, with applications in orthopaedics and biomechanical models of bones. More recently, however, biomechanical models of soft tissues have been proposed since most of the human body is made of soft organs that can be deformed by the surgical gesture. Such models are much more complicated to handle since the tissues can be subject to large deformations (non-linear geometrical framework) as well as complex stress/strain relationships (non-linear mechanical framework). Part 1 of the volume presents biomechanical models that have been developed in a CAS context and used during surgery. This is particularly new since most of the soft tissues models already proposed concern Computer Assisted Planning, with a pre-operative use of the models. Then, the volume addresses the two key issues raised for an intra-operative use of soft tissues models, namely (Part 2) “how to estimate the in vivo mechanical behavior of the tissues?” (i.e. what are the values of the mechanical parameters that can deliver realistic patient-specific behavior?) and (Part 3) “how to build a modeling platform that provides generic real-time (or at least interactive-time) numerical simulations?”

The Computational Biomechanics for Medicine titles provide an opportunity for specialists in computational biomechanics to present their latest methodologies and advancements. This volume comprises eighteen of the newest approaches and applications of computational biomechanics, from researchers in Australia, New Zealand, USA, UK, Switzerland, Scotland, France and Russia. Some of the interesting topics discussed are: tailored computational models; traumatic brain injury; soft-tissue mechanics; medical image analysis; and clinically-relevant simulations. One of the greatest challenges facing the computational engineering community is to extend the success of computational mechanics to fields outside traditional engineering, in particular to biology, the biomedical sciences, and medicine. We hope the research presented within this book series will contribute to overcoming this grand challenge.

Computer-aided minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has progressed significantly in the last decade and it has great potential in surgical planning and operations. To limit the damage to nearby healthy tissue, accurate modeling is required of the mechanical behavior of a target soft tissue subject to surgical manipulations. Therefore, the study of soft tissue deformations is important for computer-aided (MIS) in surgical planning and operation, or in developing surgical simulation tools or systems. The image acquisition facilities are also important for prediction accuracy. This dissertation addresses partial differential and integral equations (PDIE) based biomechanical modeling of soft tissue deformations incorporating the specific material properties to characterize the soft tissue responses for certain human interface behaviors. To achieve accurate simulation of real tissue deformations, several biomechanical finite element (FE) models are proposed to characterize liver tissue. The contribution of this work is in theoretical and practical aspects of tissue modeling. High resolution imaging techniques of Micro Computed Tomography (Micro-CT) and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging are first proposed to study soft tissue deformation in this dissertation. These high resolution imaging techniques can detect the tissue deformation details in the contact region between the tissue and the probe for small force loads which would be applied to a surgical probe used. Traditional imaging techniques in clinics can only achieve low image resolutions. Very small force loads seen in these procedures can only yield tissue deformation on the few millimeters to sub-millimeter scale. Small variations are hardly to detect. Furthermore, if a model is validated using high resolution images, it implies that the model is true in using the same model for low resolution imaging facilities. The reverse cannot be true since the small variations at the sub-millimeter level cannot be detected. In this dissertation, liver tissue deformations, surface morphological changes, and volume variations are explored and compared from simulations and experiments. The contributions of the dissertation are as follows. For liver tissue, for small force loads (5 grams to tens of grams), the linear elastic model and the neo-Hooke's hyperelastic model are applied and shown to yield some discrepancies among them in simulations and discrepancies between simulations and experiments. The proposed finite element models are verified for liver tissue. A general FE modeling validation system is proposed to verify the applicability of FE models to the soft tissue deformation study. The validation of some FE models is performed visually and quantitatively in several ways in comparison with the actual experimental results. Comparisons among these models are also performed to show their advantages and disadvantages. The method or verification system can be applied for other soft tissues for the finite element analysis of the soft tissue deformation. For brain tissue, an elasticity based model was proposed previously employing local elasticity and Poisson's ratio. It is validated by intraoperative images to show more accurate prediction of brain deformation than the linear elastic model. FE analysis of brain ventricle shape changes was also performed to capture the dynamic variation of the ventricles in author's other works. There, for the safety reasons, the images for brain deformation modeling were from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanning which have been used for brain scanning. The measurement process of material properties involves the tissue desiccation, machine limits, human operation errors, and time factors. The acquired material parameters from measurement devices may have some difference from the tissue used in real state of experiments. Therefore, an experimental and simulation based method to inversely evaluate the material parameters is proposed and compared with the material parameters measured by devices. As known, the finite element method (FEM) is a comprehensive and accurate method used to solve the PDIE characterizing the soft tissue deformation in the three dimensional tissue domain, but the computational task is very large in implementation. To achieve near real time simulation and still a close solution of soft tissue deformation, region-of-interest (ROI) based sub-modeling is proposed and the accuracy of the simulated deformations are explored over concentric regions of interest. Such a ROI based FE modeling is compared to the FE modeling over the whole tissue and its efficiency is shown and as well as its influence in practical applications such as endoscopic surgical simulation.

Damage to the central nervous system resulting from pathological mechanical loading can occur as a result of trauma or disease. Such injuries lead to significant disability and mortality. The peripheral nervous system, while also subject to injury from trauma and disease, also transduces physiological loading to give rise to sensation, and mechanotransduction is also thought to play a role in neural development and growth. This book gives a complete and quantitative description of the fundamental mechanical properties of neural tissues, and their responses to both physiological and pathological loading. This book reviews the methods used to characterize the nonlinear viscoelastic properties of central and peripheral neural tissues, and the mathematical and sophisticated computational models used to describe this behaviour. Mechanisms and models of neural injury from both trauma and disease are reviewed from the molecular to macroscopic scale. The book provides a comprehensive picture of the mechanical and biological response of neural tissues to the full spectrum of mechanical loading to which they are exposed. This book provides a comprehensive reference for professionals involved in pre prevention of injury to the nervous system, whether this arises from trauma or disease.
