Features: This book systematically elaborates on the theory of medical simulation and its application in orthopedics, comprehensively introducing the development process of medical simulation with rich text and exquisite images. Closely integrating the needs of basic research and clinical work, it presents research achievements and latest advancements in the application of computer simulation in orthopedics. The book is divided into 3 parts and 12 chapters. Part 1 is the Basics. Chapter 1 introduces the relevant theories of medical simulation, the finite element principle, and basic analysis steps. Chapter 2 introduces the fundamental principles of 3D modeling of human tissues and briefly covers the VHP program. Chapter 3 explains the interface and usage of MedVol software. Chapter 4 covers the principles of CT and important considerations for 3D modeling. Chapter 5 is an overview of the skeletal motion system. Part 2 is the Application Section. It showcases the anatomical morphology, reconstruction steps, and reconstructed graphics of various bones with numerous images, providing finite element analysis examples for some bones. Part 3 is the Appendix, introducing finite element analysis software. This book is suitable for graduate students in medical and biological fields, orthopedic clinical doctors, or medical engineering researchers engaged in medical simulation research.
