A Noninvasive in Vivo Study of the Skin Anisotropy Using Multi-Directional Ultrasonic Probe
Original language description
Human skin tissue is a complex multi layered material. Knowledge of its viscoelastic properties and nonlinear behavior can significantly help and contribute in fields of dermatology, plastic surgery, and also in cosmetics. In this contribution we reportinvestigation of the anisotropic behavior of human skin using a small skin-loading device, equipped by suction cups and built-in ultrasonic transmitting and receiving probes. Ultrasonic wave propagation along the human skin tissue is influenced by many external factors as the whole time history of loading, temperature, humidity, and others. Anisotropy characteristics were determined from of ultrasonic velocity and attenuation changes measured with omni-directional ultrasonic probe after defined skin loading in various directions. Those changes are compared with viscoelastic properties evaluated from in-vivo tensile test curves of the skin. Interpretation of experimental results is supported by numerical simulations of the elastic wave p
