Pilot Study: Postoperative Evaluation of Upper Extremity Lymphedema Using a Cutometer: A Single-center Prospective Observational Study [PDF]
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global OpenBackground:. Owing to the presence of congested lymphatic fluid, lymphedema involves greater stiffness than other types of edema. Although lymphaticovenular anastomosis relieves the symptoms of lymphedema, the resulting skin stiffness remains to be ...

Need for Speed: The Importance of Physiological Strain Rates in Determining Myocardial Stiffness
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 The heart is viscoelastic, meaning its compliance is inversely proportional to the speed at which it stretches. During diastolic filling, the left ventricle rapidly expands at rates where viscoelastic forces impact ventricular compliance.
