Description

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
