  • Physical deformable lung phantom with subject specific elasticity
    Patent number: 10290233
    Abstract: A system and method to integrate computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and radiotherapy data for accurate simulation of spatio-temporal flow and deformation in real human lung is presented. The method utilizes a mathematical formulation that fuses the CFD predictions of lung displacement with the corresponding radiotherapy data using the theory of Tikhonov regularization.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 13, 2016
    Date of Patent: May 14, 2019

  • Systems and Methods for Simulation of Organ Dynamics
    Publication number: 20080193904
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method for simulating organ dynamics includes generating a sequence of three-dimensional models of an organ during different stages of observed dynamic motion, generating a deformation transfer function from the sequence of three-dimensional models, parameterizing a pressure-volume curve from measured physiological data, and generating an organ deformation model that simulates dynamic motion of the organ.
