1. A method for assessing the mineral density of the first bone of a patient, the first bone corresponding to the head of the femur, the neck of the femur and / or the lumbar segment of the spine, characterized in that it includes the following steps: - using the echo pulse method, determine the first parameter that is associated with a change in the properties of the ultrasound a measurement signal sent to the side of the cortical layer of the patient’s tubular bone and interacting with said cortical layer, the cortical layer being oh bone corresponds to a second bone, which does not coincide with the first bone using the first parameter u prepared assessment of bone mineral density of the first patsienta.2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the change in the properties of the ultrasonic signal is the attenuation of ultrasonic radiation in the cortical layer, reflection, scattering, time delay and / or speed, preferably reflection from the first and second edges of the cortical layer of the tubular bone. The method according to claim 1, in which the tubular bone is at least one of the bones of the group, which includes the calcaneus, tibia, finger and / or ulna / radius. The method according to claim 1, in which the first parameter is associated with the thickness, for example, the thickness of the cortical layer of the tibia or ulna / radius at one point or, most preferably, at several points thereof. The method according to claim 1, in which the assessment is carried out by additionally applying a set of second parameters, at least one of the following patient parameters is selected as: age, weight, height, body mass index,1. Способ оценивания минеральной плотности первой кости пациента, причем первая кость соответствует головке бедренной кости, шейке бедренной кости и/или поясничному сегменту позвоночника, отличающийся тем, что включает следующие шаги:- посредством эхоимпульсного метода определяют первый параметр, который связан с изменением свойств ультр
