#4: Mini Symposium: Inverse Problems In Soft Tissue Biomechanics And Mechanobiology
Co-Chairs:
Dr. Yue Mei, Mines Saint-Etienne
Professor Stéphane Avril, Mines Saint-Etienne
Professor Jia Lu, University of Iowa
Summary: It has become a common practice to combine image based full-field displacement measurements experienced by tissue samples in vitro, with custom inverse methods to infer the best-fit material parameters and the rupture stresses and strains. Similar approaches have also applied to characterize the material parameters of soft tissues in vivo, where advanced medical imaging can provide precise measurements of tissue deformation under different modes of action, and inverse methodologies are used to derive material properties from measured data. Nowadays, these approaches offer important possibilities for fundamental mechanobiology which aims at gaining better insight in the growth, remodeling and aging effects in biological tissues. It is well-known that biological soft tissues appear to develop, grow, remodel, and adapt so as to maintain particular mechanical metrics (e.g., stress) near target values. To accomplish this, tissues often develop regionally varying stiffness, strength and anisotropy. Important challenges in soft tissue mechanics are now to develop and implement hybrid experimental - computational method to quantify regional variations in properties in situ.
The main motivation of the symposium is to review the latest progress and permit scientific discussions on these methods by bringing together researchers interested by characterizing material properties of soft tissues. Topics to be considered are related to the different challenges posed by inverse problems in soft tissue biomechanics and mechanobiology, such as:
- optimization approaches and model order reduction
- model fitting against uncertain experimental results
- uniqueness of identified parameters
- reliability of computational models for biological tissues.
- uncertainty assessment in inverse problems
- optical full-field strain measurements
- digital image/volume correlation
- in vivo identification using medical imaging
- virtual fields method
- regularization approaches
- inverse deformation problem
- machine-learning and other data-driven approaches for parameter identification
- hyperelastic image registration.

#10 Mini-symposium: The "Virtual Biopsy" and Biomechanics: How Biomechanical Information Can Be Used to Image and Measure Tissue Properties In Vivo
Chair:
Frederick Silver, Department of Pathology, RWJMS, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey
Summary: Cancer cells and cancerous tissue have been shown to be characterized by altered stiffnesses in vitro using a number of different approaches. We have developed a technique to make virtual biopsies of tissues and elastic modulus measurements on normal skin and benign and malignant skin lesions. The technique involves use of optical coherence tomography and vibrational analysis to image and measure the resonant frequency of tissues based on the displacement of a tissue during transverse deformation in vivo. The image is made using near-infrared light and the transverse vibrations are achieved by applying a sinosoidal sound wave perpendicular to the tissue surface at a fixed wavelength. The resonant frequency is defined as the frequency of applied sound that causes the tissue displacement to be at a maximum. Our initial results suggest that the type and malignancy of a lesion can be defined by the cellular resonant frequency, the collagen modulus, the peak heights and widths.
