Abstract
We have carried out a review study in order to remind the pediatrician of the differences in bone age (EO) between the existing Greulich-Pyle (GP) or Tanner-Whitehouse 2 (TW2) methods compared to Ebrí ages: EO Ebrí-carpal (EOIC) metacarpophalangic (EOIMF) and Carpometacarpophalangic (EOICMF). The study was carried out in Spanish longitudinal casuistry “Andrea Prader”. It comprises 160 healthy children: 73 males and 87 females, distributed by sex and age from 0.5 to 20 years. By obtaining the EO for each method, a comprehensive study can be carried out between them, and thus, observing if there are differences, being able to offer a quantification to the pediatrician for him to take them into account. In previous studies, the equations for obtaining the EO were expressed by the Ebrí methods. These quantifications are presented throughout this review.
