The medical identification of victims of major catastrophes is based upon a strict methodological approach at the actual site of the catastrophe when victims are found and in mortuaries. In the majority of cases, police identification can be pronounced. It is only in much more difficult cases where there are calcination or putrefaction processes that medicolegal identification is requested. This identification is based upon the results of medicolegal autopsy itself and on examination of the dental system which remains of capital importance. In the absence of data which can be used to compare the dental system of the victim with this of missing it is possible using single teeth to assess dental age and determine blood group, thereby providing the legal authorities with a group of additional arguments which can be used for presumptive identification.
重大灾难遇难者的医学身份鉴定基于在灾难现场发现遇难者时以及在停尸房所采用的严格方法。在大多数情况下，可以进行警方身份鉴定。只有在存在煅烧或腐败过程等困难得多的情况下，才需要进行法医学鉴定。这种鉴定基于法医学尸检本身的结果以及对仍然至关重要的牙齿系统的检查。在缺乏可用于将受害者牙齿系统与失踪者牙齿系统进行比较的数据的情况下，可以使用单颗牙齿来评估牙齿年龄并确定血型，从而为法律当局提供一组可用于推定身份鉴定的额外论据。
