Service Providers for Digital X-Ray of Both hand for bone age
A Digital X-Ray of Both Hands for Bone Age is a diagnostic procedure used to assess the maturity of a child's bones. This X-ray focuses on the bones of both hands, particularly the growth plates (epiphyseal plates), which are key indicators of skeletal development. The images help determine the child's bone age, which can be compared to their chronological age to evaluate growth patterns, detect growth disorders, or assess puberty-related changes. This procedure is commonly used in pediatric endocrinology or orthopedic assessments. Preparation is minimal, typically involving the removal of jewelry, and the risks are low due to the use of digital X-ray technology, which reduces radiation exposure.
