Abstract
A method and system for prediction of respiratory motion from 3D thoracic images is disclosed. A patient-specific anatomical model of the respiratory system is generated from 3D thoracic images of a patient. The patient-specific anatomical model of the respiratory system is deformed using a biomechanical model. The biomechanical model is personalized for the patient by estimating a patient-specific thoracic pressure force field to drive the biomechanical model. Respiratory motion of the patient is predicted using the personalized biomechanical model driven by the patient-specific thoracic pressure force field.
