Abstract
|
|
|
Three cases of mass disaster, KAL accident in Tripoli, express bus accident and park cemetry accident in Korea, were referred to the National Institute of Scientific Investigation, Seoul, Korea for individual identification (ID). All the cases were thoroughly investigated to establish the most scientifically sound ID possible. In addition to evidence from fingerprint, dental, anthropological, visual, pathological, blood typing and superimpose according to the case, X-ray studies were attempted.
In KAL case, 52 of 59 were identified by comparison radiography. Differential diagnosis was accomplished in 2 misidentified bodies in express bus case by radiography. Radiologic examination also revealed good characteristics in park cemetry case, however, did not satisfactorily contribute to ID because of restricted information.
