Abstract
The present invention relates to computer-implemented medical method of verifying an expected deformation of an elastically deformable and actuator-adjusted medical fine-adjustment unit (), the method comprising executing, on a processor of a computer, the steps of; —acquiring model data describing a model of the fine-adjustment unit (), the model reflecting deformation properties of the fine-adjustment unit (); —acquiring actuator data describing an actuator position of at least one actuator coupled to the fine-adjustment unit (); —determining, based on the model data and the actuator data, target deformation data describing a target deformation of the fine-adjustment unit () caused by the at least one actuator at said actuator position; —acquiring actual deformation data describing an actual deformation of the fine-adjustment unit () caused by the at least one actuator at said actuator position; —determining, based on the target deformation data and the actual deformation data, verification data describing whether the target deformation corresponds to the actual deformation. The present invention further relates to a corresponding computer program causing a computer to perform such method, and a corresponding system comprising such a computer.
