There is no useful method of inspecting the state of surgically amputated bone after an operation on internal organs. This paper proposes a noninvasive method for evaluating the state of fractured bone using speckle interferometry. The method measures the vibration of the skin surface of the body surrounding bone to know the recovering state of fractured bones. The performance test using an imitation bone, a skin and muscular test phantom show that there are detectable differences on speckle images between the cases with bone fracture and those without it.
