Biomechanics of the Female Reproductive System: Breast and Pelvic
Organs: From Models to Patients synthesizes complementary advances
in women’s reproductive biomechanics, medical imaging analysis,
patient-specific characterization, and computational finite element
models. The book discusses the biomechanical aspects related to the
breast and female pelvic floor system at each step of development.
The table of contents also covers certain events and diseases,
including cancers, delivery, aging, breast, hysterectomy or
prolapse surgery. It presents the main biomechanical experimental
results obtained and models developed this last decade to highlight
the importance of accounting for patient-specific history and aging
characteristics to consider damage growth effect and impact. As
part of Elsevier’s Biomechanics of Living Organs series, this
book provides an opportunity for students, researchers, clinicians
and engineers to study the main topics related to the biomechanics
of the women’s reproductive system in a single book written by a
global base of experts.
Mathematical modelling and computer simulation have proved
tremendously successful in engineering. One of the greatest
challenges for mechanists is to extend the success of computational
mechanics to fields outside traditional engineering, in particular
to biology, biomedical sciences, and medicine. The proposed
workshop will provide an opportunity for computational biomechanics
specialists to present and exchange opinions on the opportunities
of applying their techniques to computer-integrated medicine. For
example, continuum mechanics models provide a rational basis for
analysing biomedical images by constraining the solution to
biologically reasonable motions and processes. Biomechanical
modelling can also provide clinically important information about
the physical status of the underlying biology, integrating
information across molecular, tissue, organ, and organism scales.
The main goal of this workshop is to showcase the clinical and
scientific utility of computational biomechanics in
computer-integrated medicine.
