English term or phrase: tank

Cutometry is a technique based on the principle of cutaneous aspiration (6mm tank and depression
of 100!mbars) that allows the stiffness of the skin and its capacity to return to its initial state to be determined.
The cutometry parameters were measured before the fi rst mesotherapy session (T0) then at 1 and
3 months after the last session (T1 and T3 respectively).

sonda

Explanation:
La valutazione dell’elasticità cutanea si basa sul metodo della suzione/elongazione e quindi del successivo rilascio della
pelle all’interno dell’apertura della sonda dello strumento di misurazione. Durante la fase di suzione/elongazione lo
strumento genera, infatti, una pressione negativa costante (450 mbar) in grado di aspirare la pelle all’interno della
sonda di misurazione.
Lo strumento utilizzato è il cutometro (CUTOMETER® MPA 580).

Spectroscopy and cutometry are non-invasive measurements that involve a probe placed against the skin at the treated site. Cutometry measures the elasticity of the skin through suction generated at the end of a small probe. Study subjects will also be evaluated for the presence of pore size and photoaged related lesions (i.e., actinic keratoses), and the investigator will note in the chart if these lesions are present and if they are changed by the study cream.

O forse di un tubo...insomma, un qualcosa di cilindrico credo!
