Analysis of in vivo skin anisotropy using elastic wave measurements and Bayesian modelling
(Springer, 2023-04-06)In vivo skin exhibits viscoelastic, hyper-elastic and non-linear characteristics. It is under a constant state of non-equibiaxial tension in its natural configuration and is reinforced with oriented collagen fibers, which ... -
Non-invasive evaluation of skin tension lines with elastic waves
(Wiley, 2017-11-20)Background: Since their discovery by Karl Langer in the 19th Century, Skin Tension Lines (STLs) have been used by surgeons to decide the location and orientation of an incision. Although these lines are patient-specific, ...
