Mechanical characterization of human brain tumors from patients and comparison to potential surgical phantoms.
While mechanical properties of the brain have been investigated thoroughly, the mechanical properties of human brain tumors rarely have been directly quantified due to the complexities of acquiring human tissue. Quantifying the mechanical properties of brain tumors is a necessary prerequisite, thoug...
