The objective of this study was to explore the perception of the legal authorities regarding different report types and visualization techniques for post-mortem radiological findings.
A standardized digital questionnaire was developed and the district attorneys in the catchment area of the affiliated Forensic Institute were requested to evaluate four different types of forensic imaging reports based on four cases examples. Each case was described in four different report types (short written report only, gray-scale CT image with figure caption, color-coded CT image with figure caption, 3D-reconstruction with figure caption). The survey participants were asked to evaluate those types of reports regarding understandability, cost effectiveness and overall appropriateness for the courtroom.
3D reconstructions and color-coded CT images accompanied by written report were preferred regarding understandability and cost/effectiveness. 3D reconstructions of the forensic findings reviewed as most adequate for court.
本研究的目的是探讨法律当局对不同类型的尸检放射学结果报告及可视化技术的看法。
设计了一份标准化数字问卷，并要求附属法医研究所辖区内的地方检察官根据四个案例示例评估四种不同类型的法医影像报告。每个案例用四种不同的报告类型进行描述（仅简短书面报告、带图注的灰度CT图像、带图注的彩色编码CT图像、带图注的三维重建）。要求调查参与者就这些报告类型在可理解性、成本效益以及对法庭的整体适用性方面进行评估。
就可理解性和成本效益而言，带书面报告的三维重建和彩色编码CT图像更受青睐。法医结果的三维重建被认为最适合法庭使用。
