X-Ray Bone Age Study

What is an X-ray Bone Age Study Test?

The results of bone age research provide medical professionals with a better idea of how mature a child's skeletal system is. A single X-ray is taken of the patient's left wrist, hand, and fingers to do this.

Why is it done? 

The bone age study can assist in determining how quickly or slowly a child's skeleton is maturing, thus aiding in the diagnosis of problems that slow or accelerate physical growth and development. 

The test can also help physicians track development and advise treatment for children with problems that impair growth, such as diseases that affect growth hormone levels and genetic growth disorders.
