Fiber alignment imaging during mechanical testing of soft tissues

A method to image fiber alignment during mechanical testing of soft tissues was developed based on quantitative polarized light microscopy. Images were acquired after passing light through a rotating polarizer, a tissue sample, and an effective circular analyzer at multiple polarizer positions durin...
