Abstract :
This study deals with the 2-D ultrasonic qualitative and quantitative imaging of child bone. The inverse problem is linearly and non-linearly solved via a Born-based procedure involving minimization of the discrepancies between measurements and modeling data. Inversions of experimental data are presented.
