Mechanical characteristics of tumor and healthy tissue in the brain differ but slightly. The task of designing a system that is able to differentiate tissue dignity with high sensitivity is of great importance in neurosurgery. Even when localization of tumor by use of preoperative imaging techniques provides the surgeon with valuable information to decide where and what to resect, the brain shift...
In neurosurgery, delineation of tumor boundaries during resection of brain tumors is of substantial relevance. During operation distinction between tumor and healthy tissue rely on the abilities of the surgeon based on visual and tactile differentiation. In this paper a high sensitivity actuator-sensor system using a piezoelectric bimorph is presented. Frequency shift and transfer function of the...
Surgical resection of brain tumours is a difficult task. To enhance surgery results, a tactile sensor is wanted that gives better resolution and sensitivity than the human tactile sense. The characteristics of resonant vibrating piezoelectric elements change with varying load. This allows for calculation of mechanical load parameters by measuring electrical quantities. Different setups of piezoelectric...
