Skeletal growth estimation using radiographic image processing and analysis.

An automated knowledge-based vision system for skeletal growth estimation in children is reported in this paper. Images were obtained from hand radiographs of 32 male and 25 female children of age 1-16 yr. Phalanx bones were automatically localized and segmented using hierarchical inferences and act...
