Skeletal Development of the Wrist and Hand in Macaca Mulatta and Man Hardcover

This atlas provides a unique collection of radiographic data covering the entire skeletal development of the wrist and hand of Macaca mulatta. It is loosely modeled upon the atlas by Greulich and Pyle, which is well established as a standard reference for maturation of the same region in man. The various chapters in the atlas, with accompanying descriptions and line diagrams, feature prenatal development in M. mulatta and the postnatal development in both males and females. The last three chapters correlate the prenatal skeletal development and the male and female postnatal stages with corresponding stages in man. An appendix provides tabulations of the significant age indicators. Read more
