X-ray-transmitting hand fixing device for bone age measurement of children

Abstract

The invention discloses an X-ray-transmitting hand fixing device for bone age measurement of children. The X-ray-transmitting hand fixing device comprises a hand supporting plate used for supporting afar end of an arm, a wrist, a palm, a little finger, a ring finger, a middle finger and an index finger, and a supporting block used for supporting a thumb. The hand supporting plate and the supporting block are both made of X-ray transmitting materials. A palm containing groove is formed in the rear side of the upper end face of the hand supporting plate, and a little finger containing groove, aring finger containing groove, a middle finger containing groove and an index finger containing groove are formed in the front side of the upper end face. The supporting block is arranged on the right side of the hand supporting plate in a front-back moving mode, and a thumb containing groove is formed at the upper end face rightwards. The little finger, the ring finger, the middle finger, the index finger and the thumb of a child can be separated; and the device can be suitable for children of different ages as much as possible, so that fingers of the children of different ages can be flexibly separated to facilitate subsequent clear X-ray shooting, and the device is high in adaptability in use and good in use effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical supplies, in particular to an X-ray-transparent hand fixation device for children's bone age measurement. Background technique [0002] Human growth and development can be represented by two "ages", namely life age (calendar age) and biological age (bone age). [0003] The changes in the development of human bones are basically similar, and the development process of each bone has continuity and stages. Bones at different stages have different morphological characteristics. [0004] Therefore, bone age assessment can more accurately reflect the individual's growth and development level and maturity. It can not only determine the biological age of children, but also can understand the growth and development potential of children and the trend of sexual maturity early through bone age. It can also predict the adult height of children through bone age. The determination of bone age is also helpful ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, children, especially infants, are naturally active, making it difficult to control their fingers during bone age measurement. Medical staff can only take X-rays of their palms and fingers when they open their fingers. , in this way, it makes the shooting time long in many cases, which in turn makes the shooting time-consuming and laborious

[0007] And at the present stage, there is no hand fixation device suitable for children of different ages to separate their fingers for bone age measurement. Therefore, existing problems need to be solved
