  The realistic modelling of medical interventions is the key requirement for
development of high-fidelity medical simulators. In this work, a parameterized
model suitable for real-time haptic feedback of needle interaction with tissue
has been developed. The FE based numerical simulations are performed in
ABAQUS/CAE and Comsol and then the results are post-processed in MATLAB to
develop the parametric model. The obtained parametric model validated through
comparison with various literature results. A MATLAB based GUI App has also
been developed that utilizes these results and delivers an interface to examine
the desired forces for any known needle position/orientation.
