Abstract

Breast tissue deformation has recently gained interest in various medical application. The recovery of large deformation caused by gravity or compression loads and image registration is non-trivial task. The need arise to estimate large breast deformation, which can mimic natural body movement caused by examinations or surgery. Finite element methods (FEM) have been widely applied in this field. In this work we present the current breast deformation modelling trend. The meaningful applications and essentials examinations are described. The modelling software and basic techniques are presented.
