1 Scoliosis Surgery Simulation

2 Finite Element (FE) Models Finite element model: mathematical method widely used in traditional engineering fields (aeronautics, car industry, civil engineering). Principle: Discretize a given geometry in order to compute the deformations of a body when external forces are applied on it. FE models are increasingly popular in the medical field.

3 Methods: Personalized 3D Geometry

4 Spine FE Model PA View LAT R View AP View

6 FE Model: Ligaments Anterior Longitudinal Ligament Posterior Longitudinal Ligament

7 FE Model: Ligaments Intertransverse Ligament Interspinous Ligament Supraspinous Ligament Ligamentum Flavum Facet Joint Capsule

8 Spine FE Model: Intervertebral Disc Annulus Fibrosus Nucleus Pulposus Annular Fibers

9 Rod FE Model Screws FE Model Materials: Cobalt Chrome, Titanium, Stainless Steel Plasticity included. Any type of screw can be modeled (here a generic screw was used).

10 Screw Behavior Mono-Axial, Multi-Axial, Uniplanar Screws can be modeled. Xº
