Patent attributes
A system and method for deformation simulation of a hollow organ able to be deformed by the introduction of a medical instrument. The method includes provision of a pre-trained machine-learning algorithm, provision of a 3D medical recording of the hollow organ with surrounding tissue, with the 3D recording having been recorded before the introduction of a medical instrument, segmentation or provision of a segmentation of the 3D medical recording of the hollow organ and establishment or provision of a three-dimensional model of the hollow organ, provision of information about a medical instrument introduced or to be introduced, and simulation of the deformation of the hollow organ to be expected from introduction of the instrument on the basis of the segmented 3D medical recording of the hollow organ and of the surrounding tissue and of the information about the instrument by using the pre-trained machine-learning algorithm.
