Abstract: To expedite life-form modeling and enhance the model precision, reverse engineering concept is adopted to build a finite element model of human head automatically in medical image processing platform(MIPP). With MIPP, users can reconstruct 2D images into 3D drawing, display it on computer screen and then export a finite element model using ANSYS parametric design language. Result shows the new method is much quicker and preciser than the traditional modeling method, thus provides a more effective and practical way for biomechanics analyse and artificial limb manufacturing.
