Abstract

This atlas is an important aid to those physicians concerned with assessment of skeletal maturation of children. It represents the compilation of an enormous amount of material on the radiographic developmental features of the knee. This information is presented in such an orderly and concise manner that the physician can quickly and accurately evaluate the skeletal age of a child. While the hand and wrist as characterized by Greulich and Pyle are perhaps more widely used for estimation of the degree of skeletal maturation, this atlas of the growing knee is a valuable supplement.
