Does your baby grow up to the standard?Come and test bone age for free

The summer vacation came, and many parents began to worry about the development of the baby. Is your baby's body height? How much growth potential is there? Is it too fat? Bone age is much larger than age? In response to children's growth and development related issues, the internal medicine department of the Northwest Women and Children's Hospital will hold a summer -free bone age measurement to help the majority of their families judge their children's growth.

Bone age is the age of human biology. In layman's terms, it is the age of human bone growth. The development of each bone of a person is continuous and staged. The age of bones can accurately evaluate the level and maturity of children's growth and development, and it also has clinical significance for the diagnosis of endocrine diseases. Bone age is generally shooting X -rays in the left and wrist positions. It is evaluated by diagram or scoring method. There are standard bone age maps. Bone age can predict the child's height potential. Of course, the bone age can also be measured. According to the analysis of the results, adjust the state of diet, work and rest, and make the height play the greatest potential.

Bone age can not only determine the scope of children's physiological age, endocrine doctors will also use bone age examinations to determine endocrine diseases such as short body, high height, slow growth, precocious puberty, late -maturity, and growth hormone deficiency. Bone age has its own development law, and generally does not exceed 1 years of age and actual age. If the difference is too large, you must consider the problem of early and late. Children with shorts, obesity, precocity, and endocrine genetic metabolism -related diseases can be registered for this event. During the event, you can measure height, weight, and bone age for free. The activity time is from July 11th to July 16th, from 8:00 am to 12: 00 am, and 14: 00-17: 30 pm. The event location is the internal department of the Northwest Women's and Children's Hospital (opposite to the west of Taiwan) at the Children's Children's Hospital.

Warm reminder, because the use of bone age instruments does not have a paper version, if a report is required, it is recommended that parents use mobile phones to shoot at the event site.

So who needs to measure bone age? How long does it take to measure once?

1. The height deviates from obvious people: height is lower than P25, height is higher than P90

2. Low birth weight Children: The 10th hundred points of birth weight is lower than the normal level

3. The height of the height is low: the height height is higher than the 1000th of the normal crowd

4. Sports specialty

5. Obesity children: BMI is greater than P95

6. Due to professional needs, there are special requirements for height
