Physicians are increasingly performing surgical procedures using minimally invasive instruments that operate inside the body through narrow openings. This reduces disturbance to healthy tissue, minimizes risk of infection, and speeds recovery. However, these procedures are often challenging for physicians to visualize and perform due to reduced visual and tactile feedback compared with traditional open surgical procedures. Fast and accurate computer simulations of these procedures can facilitate physician training and assist in pre-operative planning and optimization.
