title: [Biological age: the forensic medical aspects].
abstract: All methods for assessing the age of man are based on the use of parameters of biological aging. Discrepancies between the biological and actual age make impossible the precise determination of actual age. The extent of expert error depends on the type of aging, the greatest error being observed in hyperergic and the least in asynchronous aging. Expert evaluation of age can be made more precise if the complex of diagnostic parameters be extended; these parameters should be selected strictly in accordance with the specific requirements to assessment of age. Addition of the parameters of aging of the endocrine glands and other organs and tissues appears to hold good promise.
