Understanding the pathological basis of disease and death is fundamental to the interpretation of radiologic images. Forming a bridge between these distinct disciplines, \u003cem\u003eEssentials of Forensic Imaging: A Text-Atlas\u003c\/em\u003e brings the long tradition of radiologic pathologic correlation to forensic radiology and autopsy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProviding readers with a technical and interpretive foundation for applying modern cross-sectional imaging to forensic autopsy, the book integrates more than 300 colour autopsy photographs with postmortem MDCT and radiography in a topical format. Organised 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCauses of death covered in this practical volume include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eGunshot wounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBlunt force injury\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFire and burn injury\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eBlast injury\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDrowning and other deaths in water\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSuicide\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNatural causes\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAsphyxia\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eElectrocution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs forensic imaging becomes more advanced, the possibilities for its use in autopsy continue to grow, as do the opportunities for application in related areas.
