We report a study of ultrasound velocity and broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) in
human cancellous bone samples. The influence of density and microarchitecture on …

To better understand how structural and functional bone properties contribute to the
changes in bone biomechanical properties revealed by ultrasound critical angle …

The article presents a retrospective view on the assessment of long bones condition using
topographical patterns of the acoustic properties. The application of ultrasonic point-contact …

Ultrasonic backscatter techniques may offer a useful approach for detecting changes in
cancellous bone caused by osteoporosis and other diseases. The goal of this study was to …

Measurements of the attenuation and velocity of ultrasound from 0.3 to 0.8 MHz have been
performed on a number of bovine cancellous bone samples. The influence of bone mineral …

Materials and methods: In vitro measurements were made on 26 left index fingers from
human cadavers. Ultrasound measurements at the distal metaphysis and epiphysis; dual …

Measurements of broadband ultrasonic attenuation (BUA) represent an established means
of skeletal status assessment in osteoporosis. Today, the skeletal site that is the most widely …

The physical principles underlying quantitative ultrasound (QUS) measurements are not fully
understood yet. Therefore, the translation of QUS results into bone strength remains elusive …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) analysis of bone has been suggested to have a level of
performance equal to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for the assessment of fracture …

The development of the axial transmission technique now enables in vivo evaluation of
cortical bone quality, which plays an important role in bone fragility. Cortical bone is a …
