Quantification of maceration changes using post mortem MRI in fetuses
BACKGROUND Post mortem imaging is playing an increasingly important role in perinatal autopsy, and correct interpretation of imaging changes is paramount. This is particularly important following intra-uterine fetal death, where there may be fetal maceration. The aim of this study was to investigate whether any changes seen on a whole body fetal post mortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMR) cor...
متن کاملPost-mortem MRI versus conventional autopsy in fetuses and children: a prospective validation study
BACKGROUND Post-mortem MRI is a potential diagnostic alternative to conventional autopsy, but few large prospective studies have compared its accuracy with that of conventional autopsy. We assessed the accuracy of whole-body, post-mortem MRI for detection of major pathological lesions associated with death in a prospective cohort of fetuses and children. METHODS In this prospective validation...
متن کاملRegarding "Post-mortem ocular changes".
It is quite amusing to note the mention of the ocular findings as ‘dilated and fixed pupils’, ‘dull, lusterless and opaque cornea’, ‘sunken eyes into the orbital fossa’.

متن کاملPost mortem changes and clothing.
We are writing to answer the enquiry from Professor Somsri Wiwanitkit and Professor Viroj Wiwanitkit about the findings of our study. We could not agree more that clothing does play an important role in affecting the post mortem changes of corpses. One of the major effects include retaining body heat right after death (in other words, algor mortis), which in turn will enhance faster onset of pu...
متن کاملRadiologic-Histopathologic Correlation of Cerebral Microbleeds Using Pre-Mortem and Post-Mortem MRI
INTRODUCTION Cerebral microbleeds (CMB), also known as cerebral microhemorrhages, are small areas of susceptibility on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), that are increasingly detected due to the higher availability of high-field MRI systems and dedicated pulse sequences. The prevalence of CMBs increases in cases with cognitive decline. The current investigation assessed the poorly investi...
