Synopsis

Tissue engineering for regenerative medicine have been developing for a few decades now and the number of applications is increasing to tackle the shortage of organ donors. To date, only few systems can allow both monitoring and 3D characterization of tissue constructs during their growth. In this study, we decided to focus on following the Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) known to be a marker of cell density and built a MR-Bioreactor to probe the ADC of a growing tissue. In this preliminary work, we were able to follow the cell density of a tumor tissue model using our dedicated MR-bioreactor.
