Diagnosis of osteoporosis using acoustic emissions
Osteoporosis may be detected in-vivo by applying an acoustic sensor in contact with the skin of the patient while subjecting the patient to stress, for example, by lifting light weights and measuring the acoustic emissions sensed by the acoustic sensor to provide an indication of the degree of osteo...
