Biometrics: bone X-rays

Sometimes also using MRI - I avoided to separate using the scanning technology.

The geometry of the hand bones can also be used for recognition

Experimental results show that the rank-10 identification accuracy using a dataset of 425 individuals is ~56%, and the rank-1 accuracy is ~34%.
(2013 Jan) MRI-based knee image for personal identification, Int. J. Biometrics, Vol. 5, No. 2, pp.113–125
Knee MRI images of 2,686 different patients were used in the experiment, and analysed using the wndchrm image classification scheme. Experimental results show that the rank-10 identification accuracy using the MRI knee images is ~93% for a dataset of 100 individuals, and ~45% for the entire dataset of 2,686 persons.

The frontal sinus is highly variable and unique for every individual.
