Syntactic recognition of skeletal maturity

open access: yesPattern Recognition Letters, 1984
A hierarchical three-stage syntactic recognition algorithm using context-free grammars is described for automatic identification of skeletal maturity from X-rays of hand and wrist. The primitives considered are dot, straight line and arcs of three different curvatures (including both senses) in order to describe and interpret the structural development

SKELETAL MATURITY IN MYELODYSPLASIA

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1994
SUMMARYIncongruent skeletal age in 76 myelomeningocele patients was assessed by a single hand and wrist bone‐age film. 28 per cent of patients were found to have a bone age of more than two standard deviations from their chronological age. 22 per cent had advanced skeletal age. Below eight years of age, only 11 per cent were advanced, but over this age

The measurement of skeletal maturity

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1971
AbstractA new approach to the measurement of skeletal maturity has been described. This was applied to the distal end of the femur in boys aged one month to four years. It is planned to extend this study to girls and to other ages and sites and to other bones in the knee area. The study began with the testing of reported indicators of skeletal maturity
