The mathematical and anatomical methods of estimating living stature from long limb bones are discussed. In forensic cases, when one has a nearly complete skeleton, the anatomical method is preferable to the mathematical method. The anatomical method may also be used to derive stature estimation equations in samples where living statures or cadaver lengths are unavailable, such as some dissection hall and museum collections.
本文讨论了根据长骨估算活体身高的数学和解剖学方法。在法医案件中，当拥有几乎完整的骨骼时，解剖学方法比数学方法更可取。解剖学方法还可用于在无法获得活体身高或尸体长度的样本中推导身高估算方程，例如一些解剖室和博物馆藏品。
