Illustrated diagram used for determination of bone age in females from aged 10 to 15 years: 10.2 y (10y∗): proximal thumb physis covered without sesamoid (T2); 10.7 y (10.5∗): sesamoid just appears, not capped yet (T3); 11y: distal radial physis just covered (medial double joint line, R6); 11.5y: medial capping of distal radial physis (R7); 12y: bilateral capping of distal radial physis (R8) / phalangeal capping without fusion (S3/T5); 12.5y: distal phalangeal physes start fusing (S4); 13y: distal phalangeal physes fused (S5); 13.5y: proximal phalangeal physes start fusing (S6); 14.5y: proximal phalangeal physes fused(S7); 15.2y (15y∗): distal radial physis almost fused (R10). (∗: rounded number with the nearest 0.5y for simplification).
