title: [Validity of post-mortem computed tomography angiography (PMCTA) in medico-legal diagnostic management of stab and incised wounds].
abstract: The report presents an analysis of results of multi-phase post-mortem computed tomography angiography (MPMCTA) scans performed at the Chair of Forensic Medicine, Jagiellonian University Medical College, in cases of stab wounds and incised wounds, as confronted with the results of conventional medico-legal autopsies. The analysis of the material points to a validity of PMCTA scans as supplementing post-mortem medico-legal examinations and being capable of providing significant data that affect final conclusions and adding new quality to recording post-mortem observations.
