METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INDUCING CONTROLLED MECHANICAL CONSTRAINTS IN A TISSUE CONSTRUCT
摘要
A method and a device (10) for reorganizing the fibers of a matrix in a living tissue sheet (S) by inducing controlled mechanical constraints in the living tissue (S) sheet thus causing the fibers of the matrix to be aligned parallel to the strain orientation. The sheet (S) is held in a stretched state until the fibers set in place.
