A study on the RUS–CHN bone age assessment method in adolescents and children from the Suzhou region

The RUS-CHN scoring method is applicable for bone age assessment in children from the Suzhou region. Likely influenced by socioeconomic factors, over 60% of the children in this region were classified as having advanced bone development. Within this scoring system, the evaluation weight of different bones varies by gender and developmental status. Focusing on the maturity of key correlating bones may be more critical for identifying developmental abnormalities.
