“…Other models, including two-longitudinal-wave models (some based on Biot theory) (Hosokawa andOtani, 1997, 1998;Nicholson et al, 1998;Kaczmarek et al, 2002;Lee et al, 2003;Cardoso et al, 2003Cardoso et al, , 2008Fellah et al, 2004Fellah et al, , 2008Marutyan et al, 2006;Lee et al, 2007;Sebaa et al, 2008;Pakula et al, 2008;Anderson et al, 2008;Bauer et al, 2008;Mizuno et al, 2009), the stratified model (Hughes et al, 1999;Wear, 2001b;Lin et al, 2001), and multiple scattering models (Ha€ ıat et al, 2008a) are also valuable for developing intuition regarding the interaction between ultrasound and bone. Two-wave models might be more appropriate than single-wave models when there is clear evidence of two waves, for example (1) in bovine bone (Hosokawa and Otani, 1997;Waters and Hoffmeister, 2005;Nagatani et al, 2008;Nelson et al, 2011;Yamashita et al, 2012;Hosokawa, 2013;Wear et al, 2014) and/or (2) in human bone when propagation is parallel to the predominant trabecular orientation (Ha€ ıat et al, 2008b;Mizuno et al, 2009).…”
