Although it has been more than 20 years since the first recorded use of a quantitative
ultrasound (QUS) technology to predict bone fragility, the field has not yet reached its …

Low-intensity ultrasound is a biophysical form of intervention in the fracture-repair process,
which through several mechanisms accelerates healing of fresh fractures and enhances …

The ultrasonic axial transmission technique, used to assess cortical shells of long bones, is
investigated using numerical simulations based on a three-dimensional (3D) finite difference …

Existing ultrasound devices for assessing the human tibia are based on detecting the first
arriving signal, corresponding to a wave propagating at, or close to, the bulk longitudinal …

Recent progress in quantitative ultrasound (QUS) has shown increasing interest toward
measuring long bones by ultrasonic guided waves. This technology is widely used in the …

Current clinical ultrasound scanners cannot be used to image the interior morphology of
bones because these scanners fail to address the complicated physics involved for exact …

This paper is devoted to a method of extraction of guided waves phase velocities from
experimental signals. Measurements are performed using an axial transmission device …

The axial transmission technique uses a linear arrangement of ultrasonic emitters and
receivers placed on a same side of a cortical bone site in contact with the skin, involving …

Ultrasonic evaluation of bone fracture healing has been traditionally based on the
measurement of the propagation velocity of the first arriving signal (FAS). However, the FAS …
