Abstract
Terrorism is a global issue and a constant international threat. Post-mortem imaging through post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT) techniques entered the panorama of methods used for forensic investigations, and are largely applied worldwide. In particular, since they can show the skeletal system and major parenchymal alterations and aid the localization of foreign bodies, they have been already applied in disasters related to terrorism attack, for identification of the victims, the documentation of injuries, and reconstruction of the event. The aim of this paper is to explore the potentials of PMCT methods in forensic investigations related to terrorism attack.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
