Skeletal development can be determined by looking at x-rays of the left wrist in their long bones.
Which body part helps in the determination of Skeletal development by looking at x-rays of that part in their long bones?
- Because the hand and wrist have numerous bones and can be easily radiographed, radiographs of the hand and wrist are appropriate for determining skeletal development.
- For a number of reasons, left hand and wrist radiographs rather than right hand and wrist radiographs should be used to determine bone age. One explanation is that the majority of people use their right hand, making it more vulnerable to injury than their left. Another explanation is that at conferences of physical anthropologists in the early 1900s, it was decided that physical measurements should be taken on the left side of the body rather than the right.
- Skeletal development is determined by comparing the subject's left wrist radiographs with the closest matching reference radiographs in the atlas, which are standard for various ages. Compared to previous radiograph-based approaches, this approach is easier and quicker.
