Since the development of electron microscopy, it opened new horizons for medical and physical research. In forensic medicine, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersing microanalyser (EDX) provides valuable information about the morphology of injuries, and injury implements. In the paper, we aim to confirm the potencialities of the use of scanning electron microscopy together with the ...
