As was true 10 years ago, tremendous interest surrounds the concept of" bone quality," as
shown by the intense and growing research activity in the field. The urgency to advance …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) has emerged as a convenient and popular screening tool for
osteoporosis. This review aimed to provide basic information on the principle of QUS …

Purpose: Measured values of ultrasound attenuation in bone represent a combination of
different loss mechanisms. As a wave is transmitted from a fluid into bone, reflections occur …

The successes of magnetic resonance imaging and modern optical imaging of human brain
function have stimulated the development of complementary modalities that offer molecular …

Ultrasound is now a clinically accepted modality in the management of osteoporosis. The
most common commercial clinical devices assess fracture risk from measurements of …

Three-dimensional numerical simulations of ultrasound transmission were performed
through 31 trabecular bone samples measured by synchrotron microtomography. The …

Although transcranial photoacoustic imaging (TCPAI) has been used in small animal brain
imaging, in animals with thicker skull bones or in humans both light illumination and …

Recently, there have been remarkable advances in medical techniques for regenerating
bone defects. To determine the degree of bone regeneration, it is essential to develop a new …

In vitro cultures of primary, human trabecular bone-derived cells represent a useful system
for investigation of the biology of osteoblasts. Our recent discovery of the multilineage …

The rapid evolution in additive manufacturing (AM) technology advocates a periodic
assessment of the recent progress in the process and product developments. One such area …
