Abstract

The diagnosis of bone fracture and its rate of healing still remains a problem among orthopedic surgeons. An acoustic technique based on stress-wave propagation is developed. The technique is used on laboratory experimental in vitro bones, as well as on in vivo (human) bones, to diagnose a fracture. The rate of healing of the fracture is also studied. The technique developed is quick, economical, reliable, portable, and safe for both the patient and the operator.
