In spite of the fast growing technology and modern advancements, human race is still facing problems due to natural disasters (earthquakes, tsunamis), medical breakthroughs, crime, and violence, taking many lives. Very little can be done to repair such damage. Nevertheless, forensic practices play valuable role in such cases for identification of the unknown individuals. Radiological examination plays a significant role in the diagnosis of non accidental injury in children and adults, in establishing medical negligence and estimating biological age in disputed cases. Finally, there is an increasing demand for noninvasive techniques to replace the conventional autopsy in cases in which cultural and religious demands ban on invasive postmortem procedures.
