Abstract

|
|
Postmortem body inspection at scene and examination of the scene of death are very important in determination of the suspected cause of death, manner of death and interpretation of events leading death, nature of injuries, time of death etc. Actually these works must be performed by well-experienced forensic pathologists. And forensic pathologists should visit the scene of death before the body is removed. In Korea, attendance at scene of death by forensic pathologists is not performed effectively due to low faculty of forensic pathologists and the problem of medicolegal investigation system. But we try to overcome these problems and begin to the work of postmortem body inspection at scene and examination of the scene of body in area of Daejeon Metropolitan city since March, 2003. In this report we recommend the guideline for postmortem body inspection at scene on forensic aspects. We believe that sharing the experience and knowledge about scene investigation including postmortem body inspection at scene and examination of the scene of death is very important to improve and change the environment of medicolegal investigation system in the future.
