Description
Summary:Significant progress has been made in using artificial intelligence, especially deep learning, to help doctors evaluate the bone age of children in medical images. Traditional methods like the Leather Tanner-Whitehouse and Greulich-Pyle approaches have some issues with consistency and accuracy. But with AI, there's been a big shift. This review looks at how AI has changed bone age evaluation over time, making it easier and more reliable. It covers different AI systems used, from older semi-automated ones like HANDX to newer ones like BoneXpert. The review explains how these systems work, their pros and cons, and how well they perform. It's a helpful guide for scientists, doctors, and anyone interested in this field, covering both old and new AI-driven methods for evaluating bone age.
