EN Research on the use of individualized anatomical models imitating soft tissues covers more and more areas of medicine. Currently, scientists are focusing on organs such as the heart, kidneys and liver. Tests involving the soft tissues of the oral cavity, for example the tongue, are much less frequent. The article compares various approaches to the production of anatomical models of the tongue with a lesion. The models are designed to assist the physician in preparation for tumor resection surgery and tongue reconstruction. Materials and technologies were proposed that enabled the production of hard models for case visualization, and models imitating soft tissues that enabled simulated surgery. All phantoms were subjected to a medical evaluation.
