The Applicability of Greulich and Pyle Atlas to Assess Skeletal Age for Four Ethnic Groups

Journal of Clinical Forensic and Legal Medicine, 2014
Recently, determination of skeletal age, defined as the assessment of bone age, has rapidly become an important task between forensic experts and radiologists. The Greulich-Pyle (GP) atlas is one of the most frequently used methods for the assessment of skeletal age around the world.

Applicability of the Greulich and Pyle Skeletal Age Standards to Black and White Children of Today

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1993
The Greulich and Pyle skeletal age atlas was derived from white children of upper socioeconomic level during the 1930s. To our knowledge, the Greulich and Pyle standards have not been reassessed for both black and white children; it was the purpose of this study to reassess the applicability of these standards to today's children.A "blinded" review of ...

Bone age in the 21st century: is Greulich and Pyle’s atlas accurate for Israeli children?

Pediatric Radiology, 2012
The applicability today of Greulich and Pyle's Radiographic Atlas of Skeletal Development of the Hand and Wrist (G&P) is uncertain.The purpose of this study was to determine whether G&P is accurate in Israeli children today.Left-hand radiographs of 679 children (375 boys) ranging in age from 1 day to 18 years old were obtained for trauma in the period ...

Intra- and interobserver error of the Greulich–Pyle method as used on a Danish forensic sample

Forensic Science International, 2008
The Section of Forensic Medicine at the University of Copenhagen performs age evaluations of the living at the request of the police. The established procedure in these cases involves: (1) a physical examination; (2) an odontological examination based on evaluation of an orthopantomogram and intraoral dental radiographs.

Applicability of Greulich and Pyle method for age assessment in forensic practice on an Italian sample

International Journal of Legal Medicine, 2011
The main importance in age estimation lies in the assessment of criminal liability and protection of unaccompanied minor immigrants, when their age is unknown. Under Italian law, persons are not criminally responsible before they reach the age of 14. The age of 18 is important when deciding whether juvenile or adult law must be applied.

Is Greulich and Pyle atlas still a good reference for bone age assessment?

SPIE Proceedings, 2007
The most commonly used method for bone age assessment in clinical practice is the book atlas matching method developed by Greulich and Pyle in the 1950s. Due to changes in both population diversity and nutrition in the United States, this atlas may no longer be a good reference.

Use of the Greulich‐Pyle “Atlas of skeletal development of the hand and wrist” in a clinical context

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1971
AbstractAssessments of the relative maturity of individual children have been widely used to improve estimations of future growth as well as in evaluations of physiological disorders. Skeletal age (Hand) has been the most commonly used method for these estimations.In the clinical use of skeletal ages, certain problems are inherent regardless of which ...

[Analysis of the Greulich-Pyle atlas using the TW2 and TW2-A method].

Anales espanoles de pediatria, 1986
Authors analyze Greulich and Pyle's atlas, using TW2 and TW2-A methods, in their three respective modalities (20B, C, RUS). They observe that there are differences between three variables and GP. Results are compared with those of other authors concluding that use of numerical methods adapted to population in study are the ideal ones.

Comparison of Tanner‐Whitehouse and Greulich‐Pyle methods in a large scale Danish survey

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1971
AbstractIn Denmark no systematic investigation of skeletal development had been made prior to this investigation which involved 1009 school children aged 7–18 years in a transverse examination. The skeletal age was estimated according to the American atlas of Greulich‐Pyle. The English system of Tanner‐Whitehouse was also applied. In this latter method

Validation of automated Greulich–Pyle bone age determination in children with chronic renal failure?

Pediatric Nephrology, 2015
Growth failure is a common problem in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The causes are multifactorial and are associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Standard deviations of bone age versus chronological age in children with CKD have not been developed to date.
