Forensic Age Estimation by Morphometric Analysis of the Manubrium from 3D MR Images

Forensic age estimation is an important tool in anthropology for identification of human remains  [1], however, recently it has gained a lot of interest especially for age estimation of living adolescents and young adults to verify chronological age (CA) in legal proceedings  [2–4] or sports applications  [5,6]. For this purpose, skeletal, sexual and dental maturity indicators are the most frequently used biological features for estimating CA  [7], with skeletal and dental development predominantly being investigated by radiographic imaging methods  [8–10].
