  • Experimental Investigations of Blunt Force Trauma in the Human Skeleton
    EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS OF BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA IN THE HUMAN SKELETON By Mariyam I. Isa A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Anthropology—Doctor of Philosophy 2020 ABSTRACT EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS OF BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA IN THE HUMAN SKELETON By Mariyam I. Isa In forensic anthropology, skeletal trauma is a growing area of analysis that can contribute important evidence about the circumstances of an individual’s death. In bioarchaeology, patterns of skeletal trauma are situated within a cultural context to explore human behaviors across time and space. Trauma analysis involves transforming observations of fracture patterns in the human skeleton into inferences about the circumstances involved in their production. This analysis is based on the foundational assumption that fracture behavior is the nonrandom result of interactions between extrinsic factors influencing the stresses placed on bone and intrinsic factors affecting bone’s ability to withstand these stresses. Biomechanical principles provide the theoretical foundation for generating hypotheses about how various extrinsic and intrinsic factors affect the formation of fracture patterns, and about how these factors can be read from fracture patterns. However, research is necessary to test and refine these hypotheses and, on a more basic level, to document the relationships between “input” variables of interest and fracture “outputs.” One research approach involves the use of forensic and/or clinical case samples. Case- based approaches are important because they provide data from real scenarios and contexts that may be similar to those encountered in unknown cases. However, a limitation is that input variables are not directly measured or controlled and therefore cannot be precisely known.

  • ABSTRACT the Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging Was
    ABSTRACT The Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging was launched in 2013 with the aim to collate the literature and demonstrate high-quality case studies on image-based modalities across the forensic sciences. Largely, the focus of this journal has been on the transmissive aspect of forensic imaging, and therefore a significant number of high-quality case studies have been published focusing on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. As a result, the ‘and imaging’ aspect is often neglected. Since 2013, technology has fundamentally evolved, and a number of new techniques have become accessible or have been demonstrated as particularly useful within many sub-disciplines of forensic science. These include active and passive surface scanning techniques, and the availability of three-dimensional printing. Therefore, this article discusses non-contact techniques, their applications, advantages, and considerations on the current state of play of imaging in forensic science. HIGHLIGHTS • We discuss the application of 3D imaging within the context of forensic science. • We highlight the available documentation techniques assessing their advantages and disadvantages. • This article provides several recommendations for future best practice. 1. Introduction In 2013, the Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging (JOFRI) was launched to help collate the literature on imaging-based modalities across the forensic sciences. This was achieved by presenting high-quality case studies and specialist reviews with the underlying theme of non- invasive documentation techniques. Arguably, the use of imaging techniques within this discipline and the development of this journal was instigated by the large amount of research undertaken on virtual autopsies. However, now five years on, the use of imaging has rapidly developed across many sub-disciplines within the forensic sciences.

    13 Forensic Radiology Tzipi Kahana, PhD and Jehuda Hiss, MD CONTENTS INTRODUCTION NECROSCOPIC EXAMINATIONS IDENTIFICATIONOF HUMAN REMAINS AGE ESTIMATIONOF THE LIVING NONACCIDETALINJURY CONCLUSIONS REFERENCES SUMMARY Imaging techniques are powerful tools in forensic sciences. Medical examiners, forensic pathologists, and anthropologists are required to interpret findings from imaging studies to further medicolegal investigations. Often, the forensic investigator calls on the radiologist, whose expertise might prove invaluable in forensic consultations. Radiological studies are instrumental in medicolegal investigations involving the location of foreign bodies within the body (i.e., bullets, gas emboli), documentation of fractures, and other mechanical injuries. Virtual autopsy (virtopsy), which involves a full-body computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging examination to obtain two-dimensional and three-dimensional documentation has been proposed as an alternative to conventional autopsy in cases when the next of kin oppose From: Forensic Pathology Reviews, Vol. 3 Edited by: M. Tsokos © Humana Press Inc., Totowa, NJ 443 444 Kahana and Hiss the necroscopy and as a complementary tool for better visualization of post- mortem findings. Antemortem and postmortem radiographic comparison is a common procedure in the identification of unknown human remains in most forensic facilities throughout the world. Computerized record keeping, avail- able in most hospitals, expedites the retrieval of individual x-ray films, mak- ing radiographic comparison one of the most common techniques used by forensic pathologists and anthropologists to establish positive identification of unknown remains. The use of radiographs in routine and mass disaster iden- tification has long been in effect, and its application in necroidentification is efficient, swift, and relatively easy. Age estimation of the living as well as of cadavers relies heavily on data regarding growth and developmental stages of the individual as obtained from dental and skeletal radiographs.

  • Using Advanced Imaging Technologies to Enhance Autopsy
    USING ADVANCED IMAGING TECHNOLOGIES TO ENHANCE AUTOPSY PRACTICES BY DANIELLE WEISS, DANIELLE MCLEOD-HENNING, AND HEATHER WALTKE Making imaging technologies available to forensic pathologists as common practice — although not without challenges — will help improve medicolegal death investigations in the United States. efore x-ray technology, broken bones and bullet location were detected by “physical examination and a doctor’s best guess.”1 There was no way for a physician to see into B the human body without incising it. Then, on November 8, 1895, German physics professor Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen made an astonishing discovery that would forever change diagnostic medicine. While working with high-voltage electricity, cathode rays, and gases at low pressure, he found that “x-rays” could penetrate most solid objects.2 For the first time, physicians were able to noninvasively see the human anatomy. Interestingly, Röntgen’s first image was the internal structure of his wife’s hand (see exhibit 1). In 1895, John Macintyre established the world’s first radiology department at Glasgow Royal Infirmary in Scotland. Early successes included producing the first images of a renal stone. That same year, Walter Bradford Cannon, an American physiologist, used x-rays to follow food passing through an animal’s digestive system.3 In 1896, physicians began to use x-rays for medicolegal purposes, most often for gunshot cases, tumor identification, and dental examinations.4 Over the next 100 years, x-ray technology continued to advance, and imaging helped supplement the scalpel. By the 1980s, Europe saw the early use of virtual or digital autopsies, followed by three-dimensional, multiplanar scans in the early 1990s (see exhibit 2).5 Today, using computed tomography (CT) scanning technology — or computerized x-ray imaging6 — to augment autopsies is fairly commonplace in Europe, Japan, and Australia.
