Abstract:Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction images using postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) are increasingly used to convey complex information to non-medical professionals, such as police and jurors. This case report demonstrates the effective use of 3D reconstruction images by integrating pre-autopsy, intra-autopsy, and knife CT data to achieve precise visualization of the wound path and associated injuries. The case involved a man in his 40s who was stabbed multiple times and pronounced dead approximately two … Show more
