Device and method for the non-invasive measurement of state of tension, biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of surfaces of soft biological tissues
Device and method for the non-invasive measurement of state of tension, biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of surfaces of soft biological tissues A device (10) for measurement of biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of a surface (4) of a soft biological tissue with elastic properties includes a housing (1) comprising electronic, digital and mechanical elements and sensors, and also a testing end (2). The elements within the housing (1) can subject the testing end (2) to a mechanical impulse force (13), and can sense (15) the movement (A) of the testing end (2). The testing end (2) has a contact surface (5) which can be adhered (3) to the surface (4) of the soft biological tissue, and subjected to a mechanical force in a direction parallel to the surface (4).
