Forensic Medicine

Forensic Medicine, also known as Forensic Pathology or Legal Medicine, is a specialized field within medical technology that applies scientific knowledge and techniques to assist in legal investigations. It involves the examination of deceased individuals to determine the cause, manner, and circumstances of their death. Forensic Medicine utilizes various medical technologies such as autopsies, toxicology analysis, DNA testing, and histopathology to gather evidence and provide objective findings. These findings are crucial in criminal investigations, civil litigation, and the administration of justice. Medical technology professionals in this field work closely with law enforcement agencies, coroners, and legal professionals to ensure accurate and reliable forensic analysis, ultimately contributing to the resolution of criminal cases and the establishment of justice in society.
