Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is widely used for the investigation of various mechanical components. In the medical field, FEA is used for the prediction of stress distribution around and within implants and the results are used in the design of medical devices. Until recently, most models have been two-dimensional and have introduced approximations regarding the presence of important tissues and their properties. In addition, finite element model development has been manual and time-consuming, producing large computer files. Medical imaging data could not be easily utilised, until now, to solve three-dimensional complex models.
