Virtopsy complementing traditional autopsy
IP International Journal of Forensic Medicine and Toxicological Sciences, 2020 Introduction: The autopsy is from the Greek word autopsia meaning “to see with one’s own eyes.” This procedure leads to extensive mutilation which often leaves the grieving family bothered. These drawbacks of the conventional autopsy led to the development of virtopsy. Virtopsy is the combination of the two words “Virtual Autopsy”.

[Application of virtopsy in forensic science].
Fa yi xue za zhi, 2010 Virtopsy is a non-invasive technique to reconstruct 3 dimensional (3-D) images of human organs and tissues using digitized radiographic imaging and may provide clues for forensic identification of the cause and manner of death. Because of its nature of minimally invasive, objective, and accurate, virtopsy has recently been a research focus of forensic ...
