Abstract
Predictive accuracy of ultrasonography on upper and lower ends of radius and ulna in age estimation in Gharbia Governorate. Forensic age estimation is considered a prime focus of forensic anthropological analysis of livings and human skeletal remains.Unless the age of a person is estimated, the identity of a person stands incomplete.As the accurate way to store the age-related data is still deficient in developing countries and presence of a considerable proportion of the world’s population is in a state of involuntary flow resultant from deportation by war, natural disasters or internal conflict so, medicolegal physicians are requested by authorities for biological age estimation, this is required for medicolegal and medical purposes.Bone is considered an ideal sample for age estimation as it resists putrefaction, disasters and charring, bones of upper limb are ideal anatomical sites for age estimation as they are easily accessible and positioned.The epiphyseal ppearance and fusion of bones follow a frequent form so epiphyseal union considered a crucial method in age estimation in living and dead.Most of the studies carried out for forensic age estimation of the livings have been roentgenographic in nature with health hazards of ionization so, our present study aimed to assess the accuracy of USG for age estimation using the degree of epiphyseal fusion of four epiphyses (proximal and distal epiphysis of both radius and ulna).
