    Picture: The research team designed a simple micro-electromechanical device for high-precision and real-time assessment of the stiffness of deep tissues



    By placing a soft strain sensor on the skin, it may soon be possible to detect skin diseases in real time non-invasively


    The research was co-led by Dr.


    The electromechanical system can accurately and quickly measure the hardness of human soft tissues, and can provide useful clinical information for monitoring, diagnosing and treating various pathologies, especially skin pathologies


    New device for real-time assessment of the stiffness of deep tissues

    To solve this problem, the research team designed a simple micro-electromechanical device for high-precision, real-time assessment of the stiffness of deep tissues


    The team evaluated the performance of the device with a series of synthetic and biological materials, such as hydrogel, pig skin, and different parts of human skin
