Abstract
During the past two decades, multiple studies on normal growth and skeletal development have been conducted at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles. The hand and wrist radiographs obtained for these studies form the basis of the data used to develop the digital bone age atlas. Participants were healthy children and adolescents who were recruited from schools and boys and girls clubs in the Los Angeles area. All studies were approved by the local IRB and all subjects and/or their parents signed informed consent.
