A myriad of different scenarios await those entering the field of
forensic pathology, ranging from gunshot wounds to asphyxiation to
explosives to death from addiction. Essential Forensic Pathology:
Core Studies and Exercises helps prepare pathologists in training
by establishing what they must know about the most common death
scenes they will encounter. The book begins by discussing the
coaching objectives in medical education and follows with a
description of the 15 different rotations of the forensic pathology
resident. Using a consistent and concise format, the book describes
the facility where the rotation takes place, the necessary skills,
the laboratory equipment, and other components of the rotation. The
main portion of the book presents forensic pathology essentials in
the form of learning objectives-each delineated with a code: "M"
for items students must know, and "S" for those they must do. This
section begins by discussing the government's role, describes
medical examiner and coroner systems, and analyzes the academic
discipline of forensic pathology. Next, the book focuses on
hands-on elements of forensic pathology, with chapters on scene
investigation, identification, and postmortem changes (signs of
death). Objectives are also presented for various causes of death,
including gunshot wounds, stab wounds, asphyxiation, sex-related
death, and death from addiction. Additional chapters cover bombs
and explosive devices, mental disease, epidemics, and issues
related to forensic entomology. Each chapter contains a list of
pertinent vocabulary and references for further study. By mastering
the objectives contained in each chapter of this manual, forensic
pathology students will be ready to pass certification exams and
work confidently in the field.
