Attempts to explain wound ballistics (the study of effects on the body produced by penetrating projectiles) have only succeeded in mystifying it. This review explains the projectile-tissue interaction and presents data showing the location, type, and amount of tissue disruption characteristically produced by various projectiles.

Wound ballistics: Theory and practice
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1984Ballistics is the study of the natural laws governing projectile missiles and their predictable performances, and wound ballistics is the study of a missile's effect on living tissue. A knowledge of these topics is essential to determine the extent and type of injury from a missile. The type of missile can often be determined by radiography.

Ballistic Trauma: Overview and Statistics – Wound Ballistics
2016Wound ballistics is the specialty in ballistics dealing with the interaction of bullet and tissue, resulting in lesions when humans or animals are hit. The lesions depend on the velocity and mass of the bullet as well as its design. Bullets are divided into low- and high-velocity bullets.

Wound ballistics and blast injuries
Journal of Visceral Surgery, 2017Wounds due to gunshot and explosions, while usually observed during battlefield combat, are no longer an exceptional occurrence in civilian practice in France. The principles of wound ballistics are based on the interaction between the projectile and the human body as well as the transfer of energy from the projectile to tissues.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1988
Shotguns are popular world wide and more of these weapons exist than the rifled types. With an increasing incidence and prevalence of gunshot wounds it is important for traumatologists to be familiar with shotgun wound ballistics. Shotgun wounds differ from those of other missiles because the spectrum of wound severity is large owing to the fact that ...

[Thoracic ballistic traumatisms. Wounding agents and wound ballistic].
Annales de chirurgie plastique et esthetique, 2003The adequate care of thoracic ballistic traumatisms implies a good preliminary knowledge of wounding agents, and of the principles governing lesion-based ballistic, in particular the role played by the meeting with an obstacle which modifies the ballistic behaviour of the projectile, with worsened wounding effects.

The Ballistics of Craniocerebral Gunshot Wounds
Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 1982The wounding capability of missiles is produced by the tremendous energy absorbed by the tissue. This energy can effect significant injury to structures distant from the wound tract as well as the destruction of neural tissue within the tract. Retained bullets and fragments are hazards both in their removal by increasing neural damage and in their ...
