Product Description:
For decades, the determination of bone maturity has relied on a visual
evaluation of skeletal development in the hand and wrist, most commonly
using the Greulich and Pyle atlas. The Gilsanz and Ratib digital atlas
takes advantage of the advent of digital imaging and provides a more
effective and objective approach to skeletal maturity assessment. This
atlas integrates the key morphological features of ossification in the
bones of the hand and wrist and provides idealized, sex- and
age-specific images of skeletal development. This computer-generated
set of images should serve as a reasonable alternative to the reference
books currently available.
