Skeletal Development of the Hand and Wrist: A Radiographic Atlas and Digital Bone Age Companion Test Bank

Accurate Bone Age Assessment Made Easy

Bone age assessment, a crucial part of the diagnosis and management of pediatric growth disorders as well as the timing of certain pediatric orthopedic procedures, has for decades depended on the meticulous examination of plain radiographs.

A Modern Approach to Skeletal Maturity Determination

Building on the popular Greulich and Pyle atlas, this book modernizes the method for pediatric skeletal maturity determination.

Key Features of the Digital Bone Age Companion

• Easy comparison of annotated and unannotated images
• Succinct annotations for quicker understanding of skeletal age
• Reliable bone age calculator and built-in report generator
• Integration with Radiology Information System (RIS) for enhanced workflow

The Digital Bone Age Companion packaged with the book is a computer program that facilitates viewing of the atlas images in digital format. Users can easily zoom in on radiographic features, set image level and width to their preference, and compare two or three reference standards side-by-side for difficult cases.

This test bank is not only intended for practicing and training radiologists, but for all of those who employ bone age studies as part of their practice.
