Development of a Biaxial Testing System for Research of Soft Tissue Biomechanics using Laboratory Models
<p>The rupture of the cap tissue layer of a fibroatheroma in human coronary vessels is considered the key event leading to the formation of a thrombus and myocardial infarction, resulting in more than half a million deaths in the US every year. In this study, we are interested in investigating the …

Development of an implantable sensor for continuous real-time long-term monitoring of soft tissue biomechanics
Measuring the mechanical properties of soft tissue can be an important method to detect pathology. Concerning the brain in particular, correlation between abnormal tissue stiffness and morbidity has been reported for Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and brain tumors, among others. On a more …

Elastic-anisotropic properties of the porcine superflexor tendon measured by instrumented indentation
Measurements of soft tissue anisotropy using instrumented indentation are of interest because of the potential for indentation-based clinical diagnostics. Shortage of previous research relating to instrumented indentation of soft tissue in the kPa range, such as tendon, motivated a protocol …
