title: Defining a normal finger web in children.
abstract: We calculated the interdigital web ratios for children between the ages of 5 and 6 and 10 and 11 years. We compared these ratios with those seen in adults and conclude that there is a change in finger web morphology with age. We found that a photocopier provided images of similar quality to conventional photography.
