In May 2005, a multidetector computed tomography (CT) scanner was installed into the mortuary of the Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine (VIFM). Since that time most biological material admitted to the institute has been scanned. This article provides an overview of the experience gained and difficulties encountered by participants in this project. Discussion is presented on the incorporation of routine CT imaging into autopsy procedures, application of CT in forensic research, and how we believe the use of cross-sectional imaging will evolve in forensic investigation of the deceased.
2005年5月，一台多排螺旋计算机断层扫描（CT）扫描仪被安装到维多利亚法医研究所（VIFM）的停尸房。自那时起，进入该研究所的大多数生物材料都进行了扫描。本文概述了该项目参与者所获得的经验和遇到的困难。讨论了将常规CT成像纳入尸检程序、CT在法医研究中的应用，以及我们认为断层成像在死者法医调查中的应用将如何发展。
