Evaluating sternum development and ossification through computed tomography images: a comparative analysis across age and sex
The results of this study emphasise the importance of age in sternum ossification and fusion. Age-specific ossification patterns were most pronounced in the sternal body. The ROC analysis provided the critical age cut-off points for the developmental stages of the sternum in both sexes.
