abstract="Assessment of the time of death (TD) at the site where the corpse is found is a most difficult task. Use of the method proposed by C. Henssge based on the use of special nomograms holds good promise. Our purpose was to derive the allowance coefficients which will extent the range of applications of this method. The research sample consisted of 156 cases. For each case we knew the ambient temperature at the site of the accident at the level of the corpse (which varied from -2 to +31 degrees C) and rectal body temperature (from +12 to +37 degrees C). The time of death was estimated with an accuracy of up to 15-30 min and varied from 2 to 22 h before investigation.<p /><p>Language: ru</p>",
