This paper will discuss the comprehensive solution adopted for converting the 3D digital/medical images directly into the computational model. The workflow using Simpleware Software – ScanIP and + ScanFE – will be illustrated including the option for directly exporting fully compatible models to COMSOL Multiphysics.

The extra functionality that allows introduction, positioning and integration of the electrodes represented originally in a standard CAD format – e.g. IGES or STL – into the scan-image will also be presented using +ScanCAD.
