A method for improved standardization of in vivo calcaneal time-domain speed-of-sound measurements

Although calcaneal speed of sound (SOS) is an effective predictor of osteoporotic fracture risk, clinical SOS measurements exhibit a high degree of inter-system variability. Calcaneal SOS is usually computed from time-of-flight measurements of broadband ultrasound pulses that propagate through the f...
