  • Modeling of the Spine.

    Dear All,

    At present I am involved with a project to generate a 3D computer
    model of the spine to use it to investigate:
    1. the effects of surgical intervention of the function of the
    spine, for example as a result of disc fusion.
    2. to simulate the movement of the spine during surgical operations

    The reason I am writing is to ask if anyone knows of a suitable
    computer package that I could use to to simulate the movement and
    interaction of the vertebrae and discs (and eventually muscles and
    ligaments). The solid model data will be obtained from CT scans.

    Also I looking for any papers, or authors of papers, that have been
    written on this subject.

    Your help is appreciated.

    Yours sincerely

    Sam Julian
