title: [The possibilities for using in forensic medical practice a chemical analysis unit based on the Spectroscan spectrometer].
abstract: Trials of the Russian x-ray fluorescent crystal diffraction scanning spectrometer Spectroscan A01 manufactured by the Spectron firm in St. Petersburg showed its drawbacks which can lead to erroneous interpretation of the results; this does not permit us to recommend this device for practical forensic medical expert evaluations.
