The engineering of human tissue represents a major technique in clinical medicine. Material evaluation of skin is
important as preventive medicine. Decubitus originates in pressure and the rub. However, shearing in the skin has
exerted the influences on the sore pressures most. This paper examines one demand of crucial importance, namely the
real time in vivo monitoring of the shearing characteristics skin tissue. Rheometer is a technology developed to
measure viscoelasticity of solid and liquid. To measure viscoelasticity of the skin in the noninvasive with this device,
we remodeled it. It is ideal for the continuous monitoring of tissues in vivo.
