abstract="A scheme of the thoracic skeleton (a superior projection) is suggested for practical forensic medical evaluation. The scheme presents concentrically arranged costal arches connected to the image of the breast bone and the thoracic portion of the spine, with the ordinal numbers of the ribs, vertebrae, and anatomic lines. Special marks indicate rib fractures and other associated signs (repeated injuries, bleedings, whether the injury was inflicted in life or was postmortem, etc.). After the scheme is filled in, one may analyze a three-dimensional image of the injuries to determine the site and direction of an external exposure and its order.<p /> <p>Language: ru</p>",
