Abstract

See full text

A system and method for performing a simulation of an electrosurgical procedure are disclosed. The method includes the steps of generating a three-dimensional medium, which includes one or more material regions representing a physical object. The method also includes the steps of dividing the medium into multiple hexahedron elements to generate a three-dimensional conformal mesh and assigning each element to the material region. The method further includes the steps of calculating an electrical energy solution and a thermal transport solution and generating graphical representations illustrating one or more aspects of the electrical energy and the thermal transport solutions.
