Article Synopsis
  • The biomechanical response of skin is influenced by its viscoelastic properties and fluid distribution, reflecting both local and systemic physiological conditions.
  • Traditional clinical diagnoses rely on visual inspection, but there's a need for more objective methods for tissue assessment.
  • This study explores the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to characterize the biomechanical properties of human skin, revealing significant differences linked to age and skin deformation, showcasing its potential for medical evaluations.
