Guidelines for best practice: Imaging for age estimation in the living

摘要

These standards and guidelines have been developed as a collaborative effort by members of the International Association of Forensic Radiographers [IAFR] and the International Society of Forensic Radiology and Imaging [ISFRI] in association with the International Society of Radiographers and Radiologic Technologists [ISRRT]. Experts and members of other organisations from the fields of radiography, radiology, forensic medicine, forensic odontology and forensic anthropology have contributed to these guidelines. The aim of these guidelines is to provide guidance to Radiographers when requested to perform imaging of individuals for assessment of age. These guidelines also include an overview of the requirements from other professions (e.g. forensic physicians, anthropologists, odontologists or radiologists).
