Quantitative Sonography for Bone Material

چکیده
Ultrasound microscopy is a promising tool to investigate material properties of various tissues. The application to bone is not straightforward and requires a thorough inspection of currently accepted models. Their refinements will be incorporated into a computer program for an objective interpretation of the measured data, based on the numerical solution of inverse problems. Résumé. La microscopie ultra-son est un outil prometteur pour l’exploration des propriétés de matériel de tissus variés. L’application au tissu osseux n’est pourtant pas facil à réaliser et exige une inspection scrupuleuse des modèles acceptés à présent. Leurs améliorations seront incorporées dans un programme d’ordinateur pour une interprétation objective des dates mesurés, fondé sur les solutions numériques de problèmes inverses.

متن کاملSonography in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome: a critical review of the literature.
Advances in ultrasound technology have made it possible to gain higher spatial resolution and even depict nerves with excellent visual quality. In this article, the literature concerning sonography in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is critically reviewed. We searched Medline for studies on sonography in the diagnosis of CTS and used the reference lists of the articles found. A to...
