Trabecular bone volume fraction (TBVF) and speed of sound (SOS) were measured for the right calcanei of 416 female volunteers. The TBVF was measured with a compact MRI developed in our laboratory. The SOS was measured with a commercial quantitative ultrasound system. It was observed that the correla

A new method to track the deformation of the trabecular structure in a human bone, which determines the dynamic characteristics of bone, was developed using elastic matching. This is a kind of image analysis. By comparing two 3-D images of the same bone taken at different times, this method computes

A novel probe was developed to measure drug association with the F1\*S variant of the human serum protein alpha 1-acid glycoprotein (AGP). The molecule 2hydroxy-3,5-diiodo-N-[2(diethylamino)ethyl]benzamide (DEDIC) binds to AGP, quenching its native ¯uorescence. This quenching was ®tted to a two-site
