[Personal identification by X-ray views of the chest cavity].
The topical and unsolved problems of recognizing somebody's identity of dead and alive persons are outlined. An original procedure and algorithm of identity by the chest structural features revealed by X-ray study are proposed. Mathematical criteria for assessing the found individual signs to prove somebody's identity have been developed. An analysis has been made of 29 cases with the proposed procedure when the employment of conventional criminological and forensic medical methods was impossible due to significant injuries of the head and extremities in the corpse.
