| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ultrasonically induced electrical potentials in bone were studied experimentally. The potentials were observed by the irradiation of ultrasonic wave of 10 kPa and showed the existence of piezoelectricity in bone in the MHz range. This result indicates the possible contribution of piezoelectricity on the bone fracture curing process by the ultrasonic irradiation. The induced potentials were observed in the wet bone and did not depend on the alignment of HAp crystallites in bone. The polarity of induced potentials showed site dependence.
A piezoelectric FDTD simulation was performed to estimate the spatial distribution of electric fields during ultrasound propagation in bone. The results showed the dependence of the field on the bone fracture.
