Propagation of two longitudinal waves in human cancellous bone: An in vitro study

The ultrasonic wave propagation of fast and slow waves was investigated in vitro in 35 cubic cancellous bone specimens extracted from human femoral heads. Measurements were performed in three orthogonal directions using home-made PVDF transducers excited by a single sinusoidal wave at 1 MHz. The app...
