Abstract
The vast majority of clinicians associate diagnostic ultrasound with a tool that is designed for the living patient. However, it is of course possible to apply this imaging technology to evaluate the recently deceased patient for postmortem diagnosis, or even just examine postmortem tissue. We describe several cases in which ultrasound-enabled providers obtain answers in postmortem examinations and discuss potential future strategies and applications. In addition, we will also illustrate the use of sonography in minimally invasive post-mortem tissue sampling (MITS), an approach that can be used in post-mortem minimally invasive autopsies as well as for establishing ultrasound diagnostic parameters in new medical fields such as periodontal and dental implant specialties.
期刊介绍：
The journal aims to promote ultrasound diagnosis by publishing papers in a variety of categories, including editorial letters, original papers, review articles, pictorial essays, technical developments, case reports, letters to the editor or occasional special reports (fundamental, clinical as well as methodological and educational papers).
The papers published cover the whole spectrum of the applications of diagnostic medical ultrasonography, including basic science and therapeutic applications.
The journal hosts information regarding the society''s activities, scheduling of accredited training courses in ultrasound diagnosis, as well as the agenda of national and international scientific events.
