Abstract

The article presents a three-dimensional model of the tissues of the human back in the ZBrush and SolidWorks software packages. Modeling of the spinal column with a bend, muscles, adipose tissue and skin was performed. Using the COMSOL Multiphysics environment, the effects of electrical stimulation on biological objects are modeled, and characteristics are determined. When modeling, in the properties of each biological tissue, the values of electrical conductivity and relative permittivity were set, the electrodes were adjusted, a grid was created to divide the models into smaller parts and elements, and the required frequency was adjusted. To verify the simulation results, a study was carried out on the patient, the calculation and analysis of the results obtained. The developed models can be used in clinical medicine to determine the strength of the stimulating current and set the parameters of electrical stimulation. When building a model, one can change the thickness of adipose tissue, skin, muscle and bone sizes, change the size of the electrodes, and thereby select the most optimal parameters for electrical stimulation. Models can be used in the development of the most effective method of electrical stimulation and the scheme for applying electrodes for a certain type of scoliosis.
