Determination of age can be necessary in cases of juvenile offenders. We studied the relation between the skeletal development of the hand and wrist and the age, using diagnostic methods of orthodontics. An evaluation of 1109 X-ray pictures of the hand and wrist of boys and girls with an age from 9-18 years showed that there is a stochastic correlation between age and certain stages of skeletal development. Skeletal development is influenced by sex and ethnological factors.
对于少年犯案件，确定年龄可能是必要的。我们使用正畸诊断方法研究了手部和腕部骨骼发育与年龄之间的关系。对1109张年龄在9至18岁的男孩和女孩的手部及腕部X光片进行评估后发现，年龄与骨骼发育的某些阶段之间存在随机相关性。骨骼发育受性别和种族因素影响。
