Biomechanical engineering can provide predictive values to medical professionals, which can help them develop a profile that better forecasts patient outcomes and complications. An example of this is using hnite element analysis in the evaluation of aortic-waU stress, which can remove some of the unpredictability of expansion and rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Biomechanical computational methodology and advances in imaging and processing technology have provided increased predictability for life- threatening events.

Detection of incidental extracolonic findings has many possible advantages, such as early detection of malignant disease or of an unruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Early treatment can improve a patient s prognosis and decrease costs owing to less complicated surgical procedures and shorter hospital stays.
