Forensic and Clinical Forensic Autopsy: An Atlas and Handbook,
Second Edition, provides a step-by-step, photo-assisted guide
illustrating the complete autopsy, from pre- through post-autopsy
procedures. All too often, forensic pathologists perform autopsies
that are limited only to the body parts that are suspected, leading
to biased and inaccurate results. A correct diagnosis for cause of
death can only be reached by a strict and systematic examination of
the whole body. The chapters of this book look at external cadaver
examiner, organ removal methods, laboratory procedures, including
recording and imaging techniques, microscopy applications,
pediatric and fetal autopsies, and checking for genetic disease and
DNA diagnosis. New chapters and sections to this edition cover
histology and immunohistochemistry, in addition to the added
coverage on forensic anthropology and molecular autopsy. Key
Features: Includes new coverage of histology, immunohistochemistry,
forensic anthropology, and molecular autopsy. Provides numerous
case studies outlining the real-world best practice with over 550
full-color, detailed photographs illustrating concepts. Presents
clear, step-by-step processes for completing autopsies consistently
and systematically. Details laboratory procedures, Forensic
Applications of Microscopy, and new imaging techniques relative to
standardized pre- and post-autopsy procedures. Utilizes a series of
forensic case studies to demonstrate each technique described and
the approach used. From macroscopic to microscopic approaches,
Forensic and Clinical Forensic Autopsy, Second Edition, provides
detailed guidelines for performance of autopsy on every part of the
human body. Using these standardized protocols with the proper
knowledge, training, and experience, pathologists - and students of
pathology and forensic pathology - can rely on this book to help
them develop the skills needed to become experts in their field.
