An efficient solution for cavity detection in cortical bone, using a point load superposition technique employing the boundary element method is presented in this paper. Two examples where the cavity is located using a TAC is presented. Results of cavity presence problems simulated using numerical experiments validate the approach in cortical bone with a single cavity.
