Spatial mapping of tissue stiffness

Caption

Schematic illustration of the mechanical actuators and sensors for quantitatively measuring the stiffness of biological surfaces. The lower-left inset shows the device is more or less the size of a US five-cent coin. And the other two pictures are the illustration of arrays of sensing device which support spatial mapping of tissue stiffness.
