Term Description

This term is used to report the bone age (e.g. in years, months), which can be computed by various x-ray methods. To report which method was used to determine bone age, use the Bone age method term [LOINC: 85150-1]. For mapping to an X-ray procedure for determining bone age, see the Views bone age XR terms (e.g. [LOINC: 24724-7]).

Part Description

LP241886-3   Bone age
Bone age is the measurement of a child's physical maturity using measurements of the skeletal system. Typically, bone age is measured in a child under 18 using an x-ray of the hand and wrist. Once a child is 18 or older, measurements using an x-ray of the clavicle is required. Dental age can also be used to determine bone age and provides additional information regarding the maturity of the skeletal system as a whole. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
