Knowledge of internal stress-strain in bone tissue is important for clinical diagnosis and remedies. The inorganic mineral phase of apatite crystals in bone composite, because of its crystalline nature, provides a reliable way of measurement through X-ray diffraction system. Use of two-dimensional detector, imaging plate (IP), is considered to expedite the process with much more information, hence, is widely applied in the study of organization, stress, strain, etc. for crystalline substance. The distortion of Debye rings in the image obtained by IP can be directly related to the deformation in lattice plane of the crystals. Since X-ray diffraction method involves measurement at nano-level, proper focus on the extraction of data and corresponding analysis is needed. In the current work, we considered weighted average value of intensity to locate radius vectors along azimuthal direction in the diffracted rings from the primary array of digital data in steps of pixels. The widely applied approaches for profile shift measurement-peak shift and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of a peak, and shift of center of gravity of profile-were compared with a new concept of segmental shift (SS) proposed previously by the authors. We observed reliable and effective outcomes with higher precision in the consideration of SS while using IP as a detector. Our approach in this work for intensity integration and radius vector positioning especially add precision in such applications. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
