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

This paper reviews theory, measurements, and computer simulations of scattering from
cancellous bone reported by many laboratories. Three theoretical models (binary mixture …

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is commonly used in the care of patients for
diagnostic classification of osteoporosis, low bone mass (osteopenia), or normal bone …

Renal‐clearable nanoparticles are typically fast eliminated through the free glomerular
filtration, which show weak interaction with the renal compartments and negligible …

Aim To compare the accuracy of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and micro‐
computed tomography (μ CT) when measuring the volume of bone cavities. Methodology …

The ultrasound (US) backscattering method has been introduced as an alternative for the
through-transmission measurement of sound attenuation and speed in diagnosis of …

The strength as well as the acoustic properties of trabecular bone are determined by its
structure and composition. Consequently, tissue structure and compositional properties also …

New quantitative ultrasound (QUS) techniques involving ultrasound backscattering have
been introduced for the assessment of bone quality. QUS parameters are affected by the …

Ultrasonic techniques based on measurements of apparent backscatter may provide a
useful means for diagnosing bone diseases such as osteoporosis. The term" apparent" …

Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) appears to be developing into an acceptable, low-cost and
readily-accessible alternative to dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements of bone …
