title: [A comparative evaluation of the optical density of the bone and cartilage tissue of human symphyses].
abstract: Roentgenodensitometric studies of osseous and cartilaginous tissues of pubic and sternal bones revealed statistically reliable differences in the relative values of optic density which help differentiate between three adult age groups: 22 to 35, 36 to 60, and over 61 years, and to recognize the local appurtenance of the examined bones and their symphyses.
