Forensic Pathoradiology of Virtual Autopsy

Virtual autopsy is a burgeoning field that employs imaging methods to find the cause of death. This book critically analyses and compares different post-mortem features and their radiological appearance in diverse cases. It orients the forensic doctors trained in traditional autopsy to understand the radiological appearance of their gross findings and the radiologists to comprehend the pathology in an imaging study. Further, it provides the standard operating protocols to be followed in different cases. This can be an alternative to standard autopsies for broad and systemic examination of the whole body as it saves time, aids better diagnosis, and respects religious sentiments. Key features: Provides the reader with an in-depth review of the value of a CT-directed virtual autopsy complementing a regular autopsy and how it can enhance the quality of medico-legal death investigation in a jurisdiction. Bridges the gap between the specialities of Forensic Medicine and Radiology and helps the readers co-relate and understand the concept of Virtual Autopsy. Features over 500 original autopsy photographs and CT images with over 100 case reports including a stepwise approach to each case along with comparative radiological images.
