Age of fusion of the distal radial and ulnar epiphyses from hand radiographs—A study in Kashmiri population
2016, Science and JusticeCitation Excerpt :The effective dose of radiation for each exposure is quite safe and ranges from 0.0001 to 0.1 mSV [25]. Skeletal maturity from the radiographs of hand and wrist is most commonly determined by the Radiographic atlas of the skeletal development of the hand and wrist by Greulich and Pyle [19,26,27]. Other atlases used are the Tanner and Whitehouse (TW2 and TW3) [28,29].
Reliability of cervical vertebral maturation staging
2016, American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial OrthopedicsModeling skeletal bone development with hidden Markov models
2016, Computer Methods and Programs in BiomedicineCitation Excerpt :In the clinical practices, two approaches have been used for skeletal bone age assessment: the Greulich and Pyle (GP) [9] and the Tanner and Whitehouse (TW) [10] methods. Both approaches have been tested from the scientific community and their validity is already confirmed [11–14]. The GP method, which is the simplest and most intuitive one, relies on comparing a subject's X-Ray of the left wrist to a gold standard atlas categorized according to age and sex.
