ABSTRACT
Forensic Medicine experts have to evaluate age in different medico legal situations, especially when the identity is not known, when the liability and punishment are related to the maturity. The study of epiphysial union of bones is considered a reasonable scientific and accepted method for estimation of age by the courts of law all over the world. The present study was carried out on 150 persons of age group between 17-21 years by using digital X-ray method in the Department of Forensic medicine and Toxicology at Govt. Medical College & New Civil Hospital, Surat.The present study possibly may generate the data giving shorter age intervals of fusion of centers of Ischial tuberosity (as compared to the standard text books or on the other end, may even positively reconfirm the evidential value of current data by using modern technique of digital X-ray). Anyhow, it will contribute to the better procurement and application of justice.
