Postmortem computed tomography-angiography (PMCTA) in decomposed bodies – A feasibility study

Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging, 2015
Abstract Objective Postmortem computed tomography angiography (PMCTA) has thus far been used on only recently deceased bodies. Therefore, it is crucial to evaluate the potential of PMCTA in decomposed bodies. The aims of this study were (I) to evaluate the feasibility of PMCTA, (II) to describe the artifacts of PMCTA and (III) to compare different ...

Histomorphological assessment of isolated abdominal organs after targeted perfusion with the contrast agent Angiofil® in postmortem computed tomography angiography

Forensic Science International, 2020
The current literature about histological alterations and artefacts associated with postmortem computed tomography angiography (PMCTA) is scarce and limited to qualitative research. The aim of this study was to describe and quantify histological alterations and artefacts in histologic specimens of the inner organs.

Can Forensic Pathologists Diagnose Pulmonary Thromboembolism on Postmortem Computed Tomography Pulmonary Angiography?

American Journal of Forensic Medicine & Pathology, 2014
Postmortem computed tomography (CT) scanning is a routine examination in the medicolegal death investigation of every deceased person admitted to the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine. Pulmonary CT angiography is a standard clinical investigation for suspected pulmonary thromboembolism.

Diagnostic value of multiphase postmortem computed tomography angiography in selected cases of blunt traumatic deaths

Legal Medicine, 2018
Recently, multiphase postmortem computed tomography angiography (MPMCTA) has been proven as a reliable tool in the diagnosis of vascular pathology, while its potential efficiency in the detection of soft tissue lesions is ignored. In this study, we have evaluated the overall diagnostic value of MPMCTA in the diagnosis of blunt traumatic deaths in ...

Usefulness of coronary postmortem computed tomography angiography to detect lesions in the coronary artery and myocardium in cases of sudden death

Legal Medicine, 2018
Coronary postmortem computed tomography angiography (coronary PMCTA) has been introduced as a routine examination procedure for autopsy at our department. Here, we reviewed eight autopsy cases in which apparent histopathological changes including acute myocardial infarction (AMI), anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA), hypertrophic ...

Use of postmortem computed tomography angiography to detect vascular injuries accompanying skull base fracture

Legal Medicine, 2016
A 58-year-old woman who had presented for upper gastrointestinal barium examination accidently slipped from the movable bed, and her head became compressed between the end of the bed and the side wall. She suffered massive bleeding from her nose and ear followed by cardiac arrest, and subsequent attempts at cardiopulmonary resuscitation failed.

The usefulness of postmortem computed tomography angiography for subdural hematoma caused by rupture of the cortical artery: A report of two autopsy cases and a literature review

Legal Medicine, 2021
Acute subdural hematoma (SDH) occurs following severe head trauma with brain contusion or rupture of bridging veins. Conversely, SDH caused by rupture of a cortical artery without trauma or with minor trauma is also possible. Although over 180 cases of the latter SDH have been reported, they were predominantly diagnosed only during surgery, and ...

Computed Tomography: The Revolution in Postmortem Angiography

2016
Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is the most widespread tool in modern forensic radiology. Thanks to a short examination time, high spatial resolution, and the possibility of reconstructions in different axes and two and three dimensions, it is an excellent method for rapidly examining a whole body and performing a first analysis of lesions.

Three-Dimensional Printing Technology Combined With Postmortem Computed Tomography Angiography as New Form of Forensic Evidence

American Journal of Forensic Medicine & Pathology, 2019
Abstract Postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) and PMCT angiography are increasingly used in forensic practice. However, their application in court is still limited because they need professional equipment or software to be displayed. In this article, the authors introduce 3-dimensional (3D) printing technology as a new approach to provide ...

Postmortem angiography in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in a case of fatal hemorrhage due to an arterio-venous malformation in the brain

Legal Medicine, 2015
Autopsy is the traditional gold standard for determining the cause and manner of death in a forensic death investigation. However, postmortem imaging plays an ever-growing role in preliminary examination, even replacing conventional autopsy in some cases.
