Abstract

A mechanical property of anatomy is estimated from a patient in vivo, such as estimating a patient-specific material property of a valve. A morphological model is used to determine anatomy dynamics. A biomechanical model, using the anatomy dynamics, predicts the dynamics, based, at least in part, on one or more material properties. Using an inverse solution based on comparison of dynamics predicted by the biomechanical model and the dynamics determined from the morphological model, values for the material properties are determined.
