Human Identification by Comparative Medical Radiography
Personal identification is often an essential contribution of forensic anthropologists in medicolegal death investigations. This research evaluated the accuracy and reliability of radiographic features of the lateral foot when used by professionals and graduate students in forensic anthropology for purposes of identification. A survey comprising five scenarios, each with one antemortem lateral foot radiograph and 20 postmortem lateral foot radiog…
Elder Abuse in Forensic Anthropology
This case study reviews the use of forensic anthropology in the investigation of elder abuse. The objectives of this article are to (1) review the minimal literature related to elder abuse in the forensic anthropology and bioarchaeological record, highlighting the importance of the healing continuum and pathological influences; (2) outline the theoretical frameworks that can be applied to forensic anthropological research into elder abuse; and (3…
A Unique Case of Hereditary Multiple Osteochondromas in the Feet
This report describes the differential diagnosis of osseous growths in the first metatarsals of an adult male previously unreported in the literature. Examination of the remains via macroscopic analysis and conventional radiography identified unusual bilateral growths arising from the lateral aspects of the first metatarsals with growth directed towards the tarsometatarsal joint. Two exostoses in the ribs were also observed. Using the available e…
Steam Kettle Skeletal Preparation
This paper presents methods for the disarticulation and steam kettle maceration of embalmed and non-embalmed decedents for forensic casework and curation in anatomical collections. As steam kettles are becoming more commonly used, details on infrastructure and necessary tools for steam kettle maceration are included. This technique was developed over the course of four years of steam kettle use for forensic anthropological casework and full body …
