Skeletal growth and development was evaluated in 322 white children (age 6 to 14) using three different methods: (1) 1251 photon absorp tiometry, (2) compact bone measures on radiographs, and ( 3 ) Greulich-Pyle skeletal age from hand-wrist radiographs. Bone mineral content, measured by photon absor
