A new, deep learning-based method for the analysis of autopsy kidney samples used to study sex differences in glomerular density and size in a forensic population.

International journal of legal medicine
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in forensic anthropology and genetics to identify the victim and the cause of death. The large autopsy samples from persons with traumatic causes of death but without comorbidities also offer possibil...

Classification of rib fracture types from postmortem computed tomography images using deep learning.

Forensic science, medicine, and pathology
Human or time resources can sometimes fall short in medical image diagnostics, and analyzing images in full detail can be a challenging task. With recent advances in artificial intelligence, an increasing number of systems have been developed to assi...

Multi-omics integration strategy in the post-mortem interval of forensic science.

Talanta
Estimates of post-mortem interval (PMI), which often serve as pivotal evidence in forensic contexts, are fundamentally based on assessments of variability among diverse molecular markers (including proteins and metabolites), their correlations, and t...

Using Natural Language Processing to Predict Fatal Drug Overdose From Autopsy Narrative Text: Algorithm Development and Validation Study.

JMIR public health and surveillance
BACKGROUND: Fatal drug overdose surveillance informs prevention but is often delayed because of autopsy report processing and death certificate coding. Autopsy reports contain narrative text describing scene evidence and medical history (similar to p...

Deep Learning-Based Diagnosis of Fatal Hypothermia Using Post-Mortem Computed Tomography.

The Tohoku journal of experimental medicine
In forensic medicine, fatal hypothermia diagnosis is not always easy because findings are not specific, especially if traumatized. Post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT) is a useful adjunct to the cause-of-death diagnosis and some qualitative image c...

A 2.5D Deep Learning-Based Method for Drowning Diagnosis Using Post-Mortem Computed Tomography.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
It is challenging to diagnose drowning in autopsy even with the help of post-mortem multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) due to the complex pathophysiology and the shortage of forensic specialists equipped with radiology knowledge. Therefore, a com...

Performance evaluation of machine learning and Computer Coded Verbal Autopsy (CCVA) algorithms for cause of death determination: A comparative analysis of data from rural South Africa.

Frontiers in public health
Computer Coded Verbal Autopsy (CCVA) algorithms are commonly used to determine the cause of death (CoD) from questionnaire responses extracted from verbal autopsies (VAs). However, they can only operate on structured data and cannot effectively harne...

Application of artificial intelligence and machine learning technology for the prediction of postmortem interval: A systematic review of preclinical and clinical studies.

Forensic science international
BACKGROUND /PURPOSE: Establishing an accurate postmortem interval (PMI) is exceptionally crucial in forensic investigation. Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) models are widely employed in forensic practice. ML is a part of AI, bo...

Verbal Autopsy as a Tool for Defining Causes of Death in Specific Healthcare Contexts: Study of Applicability through a Traditional Literature Review.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Autopsy examination, the gold standard for defining causes of death, is often difficult to apply in certain health care settings, especially in developing countries. The COVID-19 pandemic and its associated difficulties in terms of implementing autop...

Fatal injuries due to direct helicopter propeller strike.

Forensic science, medicine, and pathology
During a helicopter exercise, due to the scarce visibility caused by the presence of snow, a collision between a landing helicopter and one already on the ground occurred. The 40-year-old pilot of the already landed aircraft was killed as a result of...
