title: [Dynamics of morphological changes in the central nervous system as a criteria for lifetime thermal trauma].
abstract: An attempt was made in the present study to specify the signs of a lifetime thermal trauma (TT) by examining the dynamics of ultrasound changes in the central nervous system (CNS). Derangements of interneuronic bonds and of interrelations between the neurons and capillaries are typical for changes in the brain at thermal trauma. The former is documented by changes in the synaptic apparatus, and the latter--by an edema of the glia cell processes, which account for the transportation of substances from the blood flow into neurons. Such changes can be regarded as the signs of a lifetime TT, which makes it possible to recommend to use the photo-optic and electron-microscopic examinations of the cerebral tissues in the forensic medicine for the differential diagnosis of lifetime and postmortem TTs.
