Examination of the relationship between viscoelastic properties and the invasion of ovarian cancer cells by atomic force microscopy

The mechanical properties of cells could serve as an indicator for disease progression and early cancer diagnosis. This study utilized atomic force microscopy (AFM) to measure the viscoelastic properties of ovarian cancer cells and then examined the association with the invasion of ovarian cancer at...
