dc.description.abstract	Skeletal age assessment using hand and wrist X-rays is commonly used to determine the biological maturity of children. It is invaluable when the chronological age is not known or in diagnosing and treating various endocrine, genetic, and developmental disorders as well as in a forensic context. Regional studies have even questioned the applicability of current international skeletal age references across ethnicities.
