Automated Skeletal Bone Age Assessment with Two-Stage Convolutional Transformer Network Based on X-ray Images

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Human skeletal development is continuous and staged, and different stages have various morphological characteristics. Therefore, bone age assessment (BAA) can accurately reflect the individual’s growth and development level and maturity.

A real-time automated bone age assessment system based on the RUS-CHN method

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundBone age is the age of skeletal development and is a direct indicator of physical growth and development in children. Most bone age assessment (BAA) systems use direct regression with the entire hand bone map or first segmenting the region of ...

A Cascade Model with Prior Knowledge for Bone Age Assessment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Bone age is commonly used to reflect growth and development trends in children, predict adult heights, and diagnose endocrine disorders. Nevertheless, the existing automated bone age assessment (BAA) models do not consider the nonlinearity and continuity

SIMBA: Specific Identity Markers for Bone Age Assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Bone Age Assessment (BAA) is a task performed by radiologists to diagnose abnormal growth in a child. In manual approaches, radiologists take into account different identity markers when calculating bone age, i.e., chronological age and gender. However, the current automated Bone Age Assessment methods do not completely exploit the information present ...

Adjusting bone mass for differences in projected bone area and other confounding variables: an allometric perspective. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The traditional method of assessing bone mineral density (BMD; given by bone mineral content [BMC] divided by projected bone area [Ap], BMD = BMC/Ap) has come under strong criticism by various authors. Their criticism being that the projected bone "area"
