An attempt to identify brain tumour tissue in neurosurgery by mechanical indentation measurements
The mechanical behaviour of brain tumours given by the measured Young's modulus corresponds well to the stiffness assessment of the neurosurgeon and can be a great tool for further information on mechanical characteristics of brain tumour tissue. Nevertheless, our findings imply that the information gained through indentation is limited.
