This work proposes a real-time estimator for needle tip deflection and needle shape during needle insertion into soft tissue. The estimator is based on an adaptive quasi-static mechanics-based model for needle–tissue interactions. The model uses Euler–Bernoulli beam theory to model the needle as a cantilever beam that experiences loads imposed by the tissue. The modeled needle–tissue interactions...
