Abstract Purpose of Review We re-evaluated clinical applications of image-to-FE models to
understand if clinical advantages are already evident, which proposals are promising, and …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review summarizes recent advances in the assessment of
bone quality using non-X-ray techniques. Recent Findings Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) …

Osteoporosis is a disorder of bone remodeling leading to reduced bone mass, structural
deterioration, and increased bone fragility. The established diagnosis is based on the …

Although it has been over 30 years since the first recorded use of quantitative ultrasound
(QUS) technology to predict bone strength, the field has not yet reached its maturity. Among …

The aim of the study was to compare conventional sintering with additive manufacturing
techniques for β-TCP bioceramics, focusing on mechanical properties and biocompatibility …

Transcranial magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (tcMRgFUS) enables the
noninvasive treatment of the deep brain. This capacity relies on the ability to focus acoustic …

Measuring joint kinematics is a key requirement for a plethora of biomechanical research
and applications. While x-ray based systems avoid the soft-tissue artefacts arising in skin …

Decreased thickness of the bone cortex due to bone loss in the course of ageing and
osteoporosis is associated with reduced bone strength. Cortical thickness measurement …

In this study, the multi-layer structure of bones has been used to simulate bone loss, and the
guided waves were transmitted to the double-layer structured simulated bone plates, which …

In the framework of in vitro osteoporosis investigation with ultrasound on rat model, we
propose a study of axisymmetric modes guided in small cylindrical structures such as rat …
