Abstract

Classical techniques based on bone imaging allow visual examination or provide quantitative parameters like bone mineral density, which is a mass per unit of surface. Unfortunately, these techniques are generally expensive. A new method of bone characterization that uses ultrasound techniques is presented in this article. This method is able to evaluate mechanical properties like Young's modulus E and cortical bone thickness with low‐frequency transducers and does not require the use of a coupling medium. Some results of Young's modulus measurements are presented and compared to the literature values and the pulse echo method. Β© 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The sensitivity of bone mineral density (BMD) as a predictor of fracture risk is limited by the fact that this index does not take into account the geometrical and material characteristics of bone. In contrast, both BMD and bone architecture influence the quality factor (QF), the fraction of the inv

## Abstract The objective of this study was to develop a biomimetic, highly porous collagen‐hydroxyapatite (HA) composite scaffold for bone tissue engineering (TE), combining the biological performance and the high porosity of a collagen scaffold with the high mechanical stiffness of a HA scaffold.
