Forensic application of angiography on injured brain.
Craniocerebral angiography, injecting radiopaque contrast medium through the common carotid arteries under the normal blood pressure, was a very useful way to search the cerebral injuries, especially the location of arterial rupture. We think our post-mortem examination using angiography will open up a new way to investigate cerebral injuries.
