Relative parameters of upper limb bones, tibia and fibula were measured with computed radiography and used to establish the mathematical models for stature estimation of teenagers (from 14 to 18 years old) of Han population in Sichuan Province.
The upper limb bones, tibia and fibula of 194 subjects were taken computerized radiography on normal position and were measured the lengths between relative landmarks. The body height of each subject was recorded. Linear regression equations for stature estimation between body height and the lengths of upper limb bones, tibia and fibula were established.
Forty-two single linear regression equations and 4 multiple regression equations were obtained. The coefficients of correlation(r) were 0.689-0.917 and the standard errors of estimate(SE) were between 3.075 and 5.485 cm. All of the equations were statistically tested and diagnosed with good applicability.
These equations could be used to estimate the body height of Sichuan Han population aged from 14 to 18. The lengths of the upper limb bones, tibia and fibula measured on the CR films could be useful to stature estimation of the adolescence and the forensic personal identification.
采用计算机X线摄影测量上肢骨、胫骨和腓骨的相关参数，并建立四川省汉族14至18岁青少年身高估计的数学模型。
对194名受试者的上肢骨、胫骨和腓骨进行常规位置的计算机X线摄影，测量相关标志点之间的长度。记录每名受试者的身高。建立身高与上肢骨、胫骨和腓骨长度之间的线性回归方程用于身高估计。
获得42个单一线性回归方程和4个多元回归方程。相关系数（r）为0.689 - 0.917，估计标准误（SE）在3.075至5.485厘米之间。所有方程均经过统计学检验和诊断，适用性良好。
这些方程可用于估计14至18岁四川汉族人群的身高。在计算机X线摄影片上测量的上肢骨、胫骨和腓骨长度对青少年身高估计及法医个人识别有一定作用。
