Ultrasonic non destructive characterization of trabecular bone: estimation of the propagation velocity and attenuation
The non destructive characterization of porous structures with ultrasonic waves allows determining the propagation velocities and the attenuation for diagnosis of diseased bone (e.g., osteoporosis) by establishing correlations between ultrasonic parameters and their mineral density. Two compression...
