Background: Deciding on an individual's biological and structural maturity is crucial, and bone age plays a signicant role in this evaluation. It is necessary for various clinical practices, including paediatrics, endocrinology, and radiology in forensic medicine.

In such cases, radiology is the modality of choice, and a CT scan is the preferable choice. Age estimation in live Conclusion: cases is often necessary for job applications, identication, sports, and retirement planning. Multidetector CT is the preferred method for this process due to its efciency and widespread availability in most hospitals and districts.
