Acoustical characterization of bone using a cylindrical model and time of flight method: edge reconstruction and ultrasound velocity determination in cortical bone and in medullar marrow

Our objective is to evaluate the external and internal dimensions of bone diaphysis and the speed of sound in cortical bone and in medullar marrow. The diaphysis is modelled by a cylindrical hollow tube. The theory of rays is used and an approximation allows us to break free from the data gained by...
