Abstract
The quantitative scanning acoustic microscopy is used for determination of the acoustic impedance of human femoral bones in the micrometer scale. The method is introduced and demonstrated at prepared bone surfaces with different cutting angles referring to the bone axis. First measurements show weak variations of the elastomechanical properties with angles.Entities:
