These images show the breast in a positioning different from the one during surgery. We show a research prototype that eases the surgeonâs planning task by providing 3D visualizations based on the radiological images. With a FEM-based deformation simulation, we mimic the real surgical scenario. In particular, we have developed a ligament model that increases the robustness of a fully automatic prone-supine deformation simulation, and we have developed specific visualization methods to aid intra-operative breast lesion localization.enSimulation and visualization to support breast surgery planningconference paper
