Quantitative ultrasound imaging monitoring progressive disuse osteopenia and mechanical stimulation mitigation in calcaneus region through a 90-day bed rest human study

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis parallels aging and functional mechanical unloading (e.g., space flight and bed rest), jeopardizing mineral density, microstructure, and integrity of bone and leading to an increased risk of fracture. A way to combat this deterioration is to harness the sensitivity of bone t...
