Most forensic autopsies are performed by hospital-based pathologists and other non-forensic pathology practitioners who have little or no forensic pathology training. Due to this lack of training, all pathologists who perform forensic autopsies need access to easy to understand details about identification of scene elements and best procedures to help them correctly diagnose the findings and patterns they see for each death encountered. In Diagnostic Pathology: Forensic Autopsy 2e, Mary Ann Sens, MD, PhD contributes over 20 years experience as a forensic pathologist, professor, and experienced coroner and medical examiner, and provides details that will sidestep the lack of standardization which exists for procedures, required reporting, and overall process. The 2e provides chapters organized by manner of death and delivers comprehensive methods of scene investigation and all details to consider including internal and external examinations, photography, toxicology and ancillary studies to consider including photography, toxicology, microbiology and chemistry. Methods of identification and evidence collection are also covered for each manner of death. Together the breadth and depth of details presented deliver a comprehensive content set that serves as an expert reference on the job and also provides a training resource for forensic pathology residents and fellows, pathology assistants, and crime scene investigators.
