MOTION AND BIOMECHANICAL MODELS FOR IMAGE-GUIDED INTERVENTIONS

This paper describes recent progress in developing motion and biomechanical models for image guided interventions. The challenge is to provide navigational support for interventions and image directed therapies on soft or mobile structures. We describe our recent progress in generating and testing models of respiratory motion for image directed radiotherapy and focal ablation in the lung and liver, and the development of biomechanical models for image guided local excision in breast surgery.
