Result of the biomechanical model deformation for brain shift modeling (first patient case). (a) External surface mesh of the biomechanical model with the location of the slice considered in (b). (b) Selected slice of the biomechanical model with color levels corresponding to the displacements along the -axis, which is the main direction of the brain shift for this patient case.
