"Electro-Acoustic Device for Hip Dysplasia Assessment", Revista de Chimie, Vol. 67, No. 6, pp. 1140-1143.Electro-Acoustic Device for Hip Dysplasia Assessment(Chiminform Data SA, 2016) Perez Oliva, Huetzin; Cordova Fraga, Teodoro; Padilla Raygoza, Nicolas; Francisco, Jose; Gomez Aguilar,; Baleanu, Dumitru; Sosa, Modesto; Bernal, Jesus; Guzman-Cabrera, Rafael; 56389A device for making diagnosis of dysplasia at the development fracture in newborns, assessment of osteoporosis and injuries of the skeletal system is presented. Its functioning is based on generation of acoustic resonance by sound transmitted through the bone under study. The device operates with a transmitter and an acoustic receiver coupled to the surface, just above the bone area under study. The measurements at the femoral bone in newborns indicate that the dominant frequency is around 160 Hz, which is consistent with other studies. Data comparisons with ultrasound technique suggest that this device could be an alternative for both dysplasia's studies of the hipbone and estimations of bone density.
