Age dynamics of oscillation of the hand bones in children from one to five years old.

Abstract

Passport age is known to be less accurate than the age of bones. Precise information about the terms and sequence of appearance of the primary and secondary oscillation centers in the bones of human skeleton are of great, applied importance in estimation of morphogenesis features, age and involution changes in the tissues of the skeletal system. Retardation or acceleration are the most often abnormal forms of oscillation. These defects are caused by the action of exo- and endogenic factors affecting child development (feeding, living conditions, experienced diseases, etc.). Today, X-ray diagnostics is one of the main methods to study normal and pathologic osteology. X-ray osteology is a branch of medicine. The hand skeleton is one of the most convenient part of the skeletal system for examination, since it presents the largest number of parameters. The aim of the study. To find out the terms, sequence and symmetry of occurrence of oscillation centers in the bones of the right and left hands in children of 1-5 years old.
