title: [Dielectric parameters of the tissues as additional criteria of postmortem period duration in medical examination of dismembered corpses].
abstract: We studied dielectric indices of soft tissues from the parts of the dismembered corpses (skin, fragments of head, trunk extremities muscles) in terms of postmortem period duration. True (epsilon/) and false (epsilon//) parts of dielectric permeability at 10 cm wave length were determined. We obtained the curves characterizing changes in tissue dielectric parameters for 30 days after death. Thus, biophysical parameters of dismembered coupse fragments allow precise dating of death.
