Understanding the pathological basis of disease and death is fundamental to the interpretation of radiologic images. Forming a bridge between these distinct disciplines, \u003cstrong\u003eEssentials of Forensic Imaging: A Text-Atlas\u003c\/strong\u003e brings the long tradition of radiologic pathologic correlation to forensic radiology and autopsy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProviding readers with a technical and interpretive foundation for applying modern cross-sectional imaging to forensic autopsy, the book integrates more than 300 color autopsy photographs with postmortem MDCT and radiography in a topical format. Organized by cause of death, the rich pictorial display of case material that accompanies the text establishes a contextual understanding. Readers can learn the diagnostic value of imaging applied to forensic autopsy by correlating specific causes of death with their respective forensic and radiologic principles.
