| Popis: | Virtual autopsy (VIRTOPSY) is a non-invasive examination for forensic practice. It can objectively and accurately reflect fractures, soft tissue injuries, wound extent, and organ damage and provides intuitive and powerful court evidence for forensic identification. In recent years, Chinese scholars have investigated the application of VIRTOPSY in forensic analysis of cause of death by collecting cadaveric imaging data representing different causes of death, including falls from height, traffic accidents, burning, drowning, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accidents. A cadaver imaging database was initially established. These efforts have promoted the development and application of VIRTOPSY in Chinese forensic practice. In this article, we reviewed some papers published in recent years in forensic science journals domestic and abroad to show the present VIRTOPSY by postmortem multi-slice computed tomography (PMCT) applications in china for forensic pathology. |
