The technology for creating of rfa simulation

In this paper the new technology for creating of the model for simulation was proposed. This technology was illustrated on base of the process of the radiofrequency ablation of thyroid nodules. The tracing of cross-sections of the thyroid lobe was performed to determine the spatial position of the segmented regions on ultrasound images. The surface was reconstructed by sets of these contours and used for the development of the model. The shape of the tumor has been described more accurately as a result. This technique can be used for an individual approach to the surgical planning. It can significantly reduce the risks and help to achive the best results during the planning of operation.
