Abstract

This invited lecture addresses the frontier that biomechanics is now facing with the development of computer-assisted devices that can provide intra-operative assistance of the surgical gesture. The underlying idea is to use patient-specific biomechanical models during surgery, i.e. in the operating theatre. In that case, three main challenges need to be solved to be compatible with the clinical constraints: (1) a very fast generation of patient-specific models, (2) an in vivo estimation of the patient-specific constitutive equations of the soft tissues, and (3) interactive numerical simulations
