Resumen de Personalization of bone remodelling simulation models for clinical applications
Access to high-quality healthcare is an important marker of the development of human societies. Technological contributions to medicine have shown relevant potential to discover effective procedures at a preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic level. In particular, computational methods enable efficient processing of medical data and can therefore model complex biological systems. This has influenced the development of Personalized Medicine (PM) over recent decades, where obtaining specific knowledge of each case allows for tailored interventions, all at an affordable resource cost. Simulation of bone remodeling is a promising field in the context of PM. Predicting a bone adaptation process in a specific case can lead to numerous applications in the field of bone diseases, both clinically and experimentally. By combining the Finite Element Method (FEM) and bone remodeling algorithms, it is possible to obtain numerical models of a specific bone from medical data (for example, a CT scan). All of this can lead to a revolution in personalized medicine.
