Ballistic Trauma: Wound Ballistics—An Overview

Wound 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.

Gunshot wounds: Radiology and wound ballistics

Emergency Radiology, 1995
Bullets of equal wounding potential may produce wounds of very different severity. Wounding is an interaction between the missile and the tissue. When attempting to predict wound severity, focusing on missile velocity while forgetting either the properties of the tissue wounded or the missile’s mass and construction leads to very poor predictions ...

Wound Ballistics-Reply

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1988
In Reply.— Dr Adams' calculations do not support his contention that by "size" Amato et al meant area instead of diameter. The area of the 70.4-mm diameter cavity (11 sphere diameters of 6.4 mm each) is 3892 mm 2 , not 972 mm 2 . Rather than 30-fold, this is a 122-fold difference.

[Thoracic ballistic traumatisms. Wounding agents and wound ballistic].

Annales de chirurgie plastique et esthetique, 2003
The 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.

Clinical Update: Gunshot Wound Ballistics

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2003
Although firearm related injury and mortality actually may be declining, gunshot trauma remains a significant cause of morbidity and socioeconomic cost with 115,000 missile injuries annually and as many as 40,000 deaths. Wounds typically are classified as low-velocity (< 2000 feet/second) or high-velocity (> 2000 feet/second).

WOUND BALLISTICS AND BODY ARMOR

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952
Physicians spend an endless amount of time determining the etiological agents and the pathogenesis of disease. This is intrinsic to their progress. In a world of armed conflict in which the interval between wars has assumed a startling brevity, it is cogent that physicians also be informed about modern firearms and their missiles, for these are the ...
