Patient-Specific Optimization for Mandibular Reconstruction Planning with Enhanced Bone Union
arXiv CS.CV
•
ArXi:2605.01084v1 Announce Type: new Mandibular reconstruction with vascularized bone grafts is complicated by donor-host nonunion, and current virtual surgical planning produces a geometric plan rather than a configuration that explicitly promotes bone union. We present OsteoOpt++, an image-to-decision planning loop for patient-specific mandibular reconstruction. A pre-operative computed tomography (CT) is converted into a personalized digital twin through template-to-patient registration and CT-derived updates of the muscle and temporomandibular-joint parameters.
