In-vivo Mapping of Human Skin Anisotropy Using Multi-directional Ultrasonic Probe
Tokar, Daniel ; Hradilová, Jana ; Převorovský, Zdeněk
In this paper, investigation of anisotropic behavior of forearm and back skin tissue is presented. Knowledge in this research field is of great interest mainly in dermatology, plastic surgery and regenerative therapies. Anisotropy characteristics of the skin are determined by ultrasonic wave propagation velocity using special multi-directional flexible ultrasonic probe, which enables local investigation of skin anisotropy in vivo. Assessing data, obtained from local measurements of human back, enables visualization of anisotropy map of the back skin tissue. Findings in current state of human skin anisotropy using the multi-directional ultrasonic probe provide an easy method to evaluate the local anisotropy of inter-individual skin tissue.
