Reliability of Tibial Measurement with Mechanical Response Tissue Analysis
Mechanical response tissue analysis (MRTA) provides a noninvasive means of estimating the cross-sectional bending stiffness (EI) of long bones, and thus can serve as a predictor of bone strength. Estimates of bone bending stiffness are derived from the point impedance response of a long bone to low...
