Abstract
The effect of perfusion on the weight and the thickness was non-reversible, whereas the effect on the shear modulus was reversible. Pressure was found to increase the average shear modulus in the cortex by as much as 73%. A pressure of 80Â mmHg was needed to observe tissues shear modulus in the same range as in vivo tests (Gcortex=9.1Â kPa, Gmedulla=8.5Â kPa ex vivo versus Gcortex=9.1Â kPa, Gmedulla=8.7Â kPa in vivo in Gennisson et al., 2012).
