摘要：

This study examines the reliability of age estimation utilizing the Pyle and Hoerr atlas in relation to a modern Scottish population. The knee radiographs of 442 individuals (168 females, 274 males) were age assessed using the Pyle and Hoerr atlas. Analysis showed that there was a strong correlation between chronological age and estimated age (females R2=0.968, males R2=0.952). For females, the atlas method was most accurate between the ages of 9 and 15years of age with an underage of 2.27months and an overage of 2.38months. For males, the atlas consistently overestimated age from the age of 9years to the age of 16years from between 0.14 and 8.81months. The standard deviation for females was 9.86months and for males was 10.75months. This study showed that the Pyle and Hoerr atlas can be applied to a modern population with small modifications.
