Parameter estimation-based discrimination method for osteoporosis stage with ultrasound bone densitometer

Abstract This paper proposes a new method for predicting the stage of osteoporosis by estimating bone-density parameters using an ultrasonic-bone densitometer. Using the developed ultrasonic bone densitometer, the ultrasonic signal passing through the phalanx of the finger was measured, and the meas...
