We propose a fast, interactive real-time 3DCG deformable simulation prototype for preoperative virtual practice of brain aneurysm clipping surgery, controlled by Position Based Dynamics (PBD). Blood vessels are reconstructed from their central lines, connected to the brain by automatically generated thin threads “virtual trabeculae", and colored by automatically estimated their dominant region.
Note: The improved demo was exhibited at IEEE VR 2019. The web page is here.
