“…In close collaborations between forensic institutes and radiological departments, postmortem imaging is being introduced into forensic routine processes either using in-house equipment [16,17] or clinically installed scanners [18]. The expertise to forensically interpret postmortem imaging data ranges somewhere between forensic pathology and radiology so that radiological trained forensic pathologists as well as forensically trained clinical radiologists currently do the image reading.…”

“…Some researchers have reported that the term buckle is derived from engineering terminology that describes disruption of the inner or tensile side of a structure that is placed under force (7,17). Flail chest ("volet") is a traumatic condition in which there are three or more contiguous ribs with fractures in two or more places ( Figure 3).…”

Blunt injuries to the chest wall are an important chapter on emergency room (ER) departments, being the third most common injuries in trauma patients which ominous complications could appear. This article describes different types of traumatic events affecting the chest wall, which maybe misdiagnosed with conventional X-ray. Special emphasis has been done in computed tomography (CT) and multidetector CT (MDCT) imaging. This technique is considered the "gold-standard" for those traumatic patients, due to its fast acquisition covering the whole area of interest in axial plane, reconstructing multiplanar (2D, 3D) volume-rendered images with a superb quality and angiographic CT capabilities for evaluating vascular damage. Complementary techniques such as ultrasonography (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may improve the diagnostic accuracy due to its great capacity in visualising soft-tissue trauma (muscletendinous tears) and subtle fractures. All these imaging methods have an important role in quantifying the severity of chest wall trauma. The findings of this study have been exposed with cases of our archives in a didactic way.

“…Postmortem CT images have the advantage of being able to provide objective information when required in cases such as personal identification [6,7], and injury [8][9][10][11][12]. In addition, postmortem CT images have been used to investigate the cause of death [13,14].…”
