Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) has emerged as an effective imaging technique to augment forensic autopsy. Postmortem change and decomposition are always present at autopsy and on postmortem MDCT because they begin to occur immediately upon death. Consequently, postmortem change and decomposition on postmortem MDCT should be recognized and not

Postmortem Changes and Estimating the Postmortem Interval
2017Knowledge of the postmortem chemical and physical processes and the factors that affect them will permit the accurate interpretation of gross and microscopic pathology at necropsy and aid in the estimation of the postmortem interval (PMI). Estimation of the PMI is important in many human and animal death investigations; however, the accuracy in ...

Characteristics of postmortem changes in the brain
Forensic Medical ExpertiseThe study aimed to analyze the literature data on postmortem changes in the brain and their use to determine the time since death. The earliest manifestations of brain cell autolysis are detected by electron microscopy (15—20 minutes after death).

Gross and Histologic Postmortem Changes of the Skin
American Journal of Forensic Medicine & Pathology, 2005Many methods have been attempted to accurately and systematically determine the estimated time of death in autopsy cases. Gross changes of the skin which occur during the postmortem interval have occasionally been used to estimate the time of death under different conditions; however, the postmortem gross and histologic changes of the skin have not ...

Postmortem Changes in Brain Catecholamine Enzymes
Archives of Neurology, 1975Postmortem changes in the activities of tyrosine hydroxylase, dopa decarboxylase, and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase were examined in various areas of rat brain. Tyrosine hydroxylase activity decreased in an exponential fashion with a half-time of two to four hours in caudate-putamen, substantia nigra, and locus ceruleus.

Postmortem changes of the thyroid on computed tomography
Legal Medicine, 2011To evaluate the radiographic features of the thyroid on postmortem computed tomography (PMCT).We studied the bodies of 32 subjects who had been treated and subsequently died in our tertiary care hospital between April and December 2009. The thyroids were imaged by antemortem computed tomography (AMCT), PMCT, and examined by conventional autopsy ...

Postmortem Biochemical Changes in Canine Blood
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1980Abstract Antemortem and postmortem blood samples from 60 dogs were evaluated for sodium, chloride, potassium, urea nitrogen, glucose, creatinine, calcium, phosphorus, total protein, albumin, and carbon dioxide levels. Temperatures were 4, 20, and 37°C Postmortem intervals were 3, 6, 12, 24, and 48 h.

Postmortem Changes in Blood Amitriptyline Concentration
The American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology, 1994Detailed toxicological studies were undertaken on two suicides by amitriptyline overdose, one with salicylate also. In the first case, 10 initial blood samples taken 21 h after body discovery and an estimated 28 1/2 h after overdose had drug concentration (mg/L) ranges of 2.5-12 for amitriptyline (AM), 0.7-3.1 for nortriptyline (NOR), and 81-244 for ...

Postmortem Changes in the Human Carotid Body
1994Heath and his colleagues have described three varieties of Type I cells based upon differences in nuclear morphology (Heath et al., 1970); this is at odds with the situation in experimental animals. Pallot et al. (1992) examined rat carotid bodies fixed at various times after death of the animal.
