Thanatology

0 - Default Title
Description
Thanatology is the scientific study of death and the changes that occur in the body after death. In forensic medicine, it plays a crucial role in determining the time since death (postmortem interval), cause, and manner of death. It involves the examination of postmortem changes such as rigor mortis, livor mortis, algor mortis, decomposition, and putrefaction. By analyzing these changes, forensic experts can reconstruct events surrounding death, aid in criminal investigations, and provide vital evidence in legal proceedings. Thanatology also covers medico-legal aspects of death certification, autopsy, and the distinction between natural and unnatural deaths.
