Using a 3D Biomechanical Model To Improve a Light Aspiration Device for In Vivo Soft Tissue Characterization (LASTIC)

Abstract

The focus of this paper is to compare the axisymmetric 2D model to a 3D model of LASTIC’s aspiration procedure. The 3D model takes into account the non-symmetry of the device being therefore closer to the exact geometry of the set-up. To check the impact of this new model, results of simulations using the 2D and 3D models are compared against real aspiration experiments.
