Optimisation of post mortem cardiac computed tomography compared to optical coherence tomography and histopathology – Technical note
Conclusion The new method permits comparison of CT with OCT and histopathology. This method can also be used for evaluating coronary artery disease, including characterising plaques, and will eventually allow for the detection of rupture-prone plaques, which we will assess in a future study. Clinical testing is our ultimate goal. (Source: Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging)

Science into practice: Post-mortem imaging provides conclusive evidence in a non-suspicious death
Publication date: April 2014 Source:Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging, Volume 2, Issue 2 Author(s): Thomas D. Ruder , Pia Paula , Gary M. Hatch , Garyfalia Ampanozi , Michael J. Thali , Wolf Schweitzer Here we describe the first documented case of suspected sudden cardiac death within our jurisdiction where both the forensic pathologists in charge of the case and the office of the public prosecutor considered the evidence provided by death scene investigations and post-mortem magnetic resonance of the heart sufficient to conclude a case without autopsy. This single case sets a precedent in the investigati...

Analysis of sexual dimorphism by locating the mandibular canal in images of cone-beam computed tomography
In conclusion, the formula developed in this study can be used together with other criteria as a tool to sexual identification in forensic settings. (Source: Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging)

CT scan images to determine the origin from craniofacial indices for Gujarati population
Conclusion The comparison of these indices among other Indian and non-Indian origins׳ people showed a significant variation in the values. Thus it can be concluded that craniofacial indices are helpful parameters for the determination of origin of the skeletal remains. (Source: Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging)

Demystifying the fog – CT and MRI confirming the diagnosis of carbon monoxide poisoning by gas geysers
Conclusion The distribution of brain lesions produced by “gas geyser poisoning”, very closely correlated with that of brain involvement in carbon monoxide intoxication. Thus, we conclude that it is the CO produced by incomplete combustion of LPG in poorly ventilated washrooms that leads to various neurological symptoms in these patients. The purpose of this paper is to create awareness among radiologists, emergency medicine physicians, neurologists, general physicians and the public about the existence of gas geyser poisoning and to further elaborate the imaging findings in these patients.

RADid: A pictorial review of radiologic identification using postmortem CT
Publication date: April 2014 Source:Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging, Volume 2, Issue 2 Author(s): Gary M. Hatch , Fabrice Dedouit , Angi M. Christensen , Michael J. Thali , Thomas D. Ruder Radiologic identification (RADid) is a powerful and frequently successful tool for personal identification (ID). Postmortem computed tomography (PMCT), in particular, is uniquely well suited for the ID process, given the fact it may be reformatted or rendered to match almost any AM medical imaging examination. RADid may also offer a faster and less expensive alternative to other methods, such as DNA analysis, in select...
