Abstract

Because of FEM computational modelling of human tissues, in number of biomechanical applications, we have needed 3D FEM models of the tissues. Manual creating of the models is often very hard or impossi-ble, because of tissues geometry complexity. There-fore we have developed computer system for fully automatic tetrahedral FEM models creation. Input information about tissues geometry and structure we have from segmented CT/MR data.
