Literature on the estimation of age at death of immature human skeletons is critically reviewed. Those estimating age at death for forensic science purposes should consider all available data, but especially rely upon the most appropriate and accurate methods. Estimates should reflect the possible error resulting from the sex differences and population variability known to be associated with the growth process.
对关于未成熟人类骨骼死亡年龄估计的文献进行了批判性综述。那些出于法医学目的估计死亡年龄的人应考虑所有可用数据，但尤其应依赖最合适和准确的方法。估计应反映出已知与生长过程相关的性别差异和人群变异性所导致的可能误差。
