1. A method implemented on at least one machine including at least one processor, memory, and communication platform capable of connecting to a network for preoperative planning, the method comprising:
receiving, via the communication platform, input data acquired with respect to a part of a patient, wherein the part corresponds to an organ of the patient to be operated on and includes one or more lesions to be removed during an operation;
generating, via the at least one processor, an anatomic 3D inflated thoracic model of the part, the anatomic 3D inflated thoracic model corresponding to the organ being in an inflated state;
generating, via the at least one processor based on the anatomic 3D inflated thoracic model of the part, a preoperative plan for linear-cutting stapler resection of the one or more lesions from the organ to be carried out during the operation
estimating, via the at least one processor, a stapler cartridge size and a staple length based on the obtained preoperative plan;
modifying, via the at least one processor during the operation, the preoperative plan to account for deflation of the organ, resulting in a deflated plan; and
displaying, via a display, a resection based on the deflated plan.
