Abstract
An individualized preoperative planning system for fracture fixation constructs provides fracture assessment before automatically performing finite element simulations to generate biomechanics associated with a large number of fracture fixation construct design alternatives. Data visualization utilizing multivariate plots or surrogate modeling based on the simulation results are then provided to surgeons enabling surgeons to view, adjust and optimize their fracture fixation construct designs.
