Post-menopausal osteoporosis has become a serious public health problem with the increase of the geriatric population. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) is the most common method for diagnosis of osteoporosis by quantitative change of bone, but recently there is increasing interest in measuring both qualitative and quantitative changes of bone by ultrasound. This study measured ultrasound velocity of anterior tibial cortex to evaluate the feasibility of detecting cortical bone status by speed of sound (SOS).
