		<description><![CDATA[This paper introduces a new, efficient approach for modelling the deformation of organs following surgical cuts, retractions, and resections. It uses the extended finite element method XFEM, recently developed in "fracture mechanics" for dealing with cracks in mechanical parts. XFEM eliminates the computationally-expensive remeshing that would be required if the...]]></description>
