Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello! It's useful. For children who are still in the growth and development stage, it can predict and assess their growth to determine whether it is truly "late growth" or just a height issue, which depends on bone age. Whether it's early development or delayed development leading to sudden height increase or short stature, some can be intervened with medication. However, for children whose epiphyses have closed, long bones will no longer grow, and there's nothing that can be done even if they are shorter.
