Methods of processing a biological growth plate in a biological growth plate scanner

摘要

Methods are provided to process a biological growth plate using a biological growth plate scanner. The scanner includes an imaging device, a processor, and an image processing profile memory. The scanner scans a plate type indicator associated with the biological growth plate. In some embodiments, the processor uses the plate type indicator to verify the suitability of the biological growth plate for use in the scanner. In some embodiments, the processor uses the plate type indicator to unlock the scanner for operation.
