There is a rich history of the physical sciences contributing to cancer research and treatments, yet there is currently no such book that covers all of the new techniques and developments in the field of the physics of cancer. This book aims to highlight precisely these biophysical techniques and their achievements for physical cancer research to ensure they receive more attention in the scientific community.
This fifth volume of the 'Physics of Cancer (Second Edition)' series contains eight chapters dealing with biophysical methods. The first chapter presents the traditional NMR techniques and introduces the relatively new MRE technique for the characterization of cancer cells and tissues. The second chapter provides an overview of magnetic tweezer techniques relevant to cell characterization. The third chapter focusses on the magnetic twisting cytometry techniques. The fourth and fifth chapters discuss the cytoskeletal remodeling dynamics from a biological viewpoint and a physical viewpoint, respectively. The optical tweezer is introduced in the sixth chapter and the optical cell stretcher is discussed in the seventh chapter. In the eighth chapter, microfluidics-based high-throughput cell stretching is discussed and the latest developments are presented.
Current and groundbreaking references are included throughout, meaning that each chapter is perfectly suited to serve as a reference for future scientific works and to provide scientific impetus for new research approaches.
