What is remote forensic radiology?

Remote forensic radiology involves the use of medical imaging technologies, such as CT scans and X-rays, to assist in forensic investigations from a distance. Specialists in this field analyze digital images sent electronically, helping to determine causes of death, identify injuries, or provide evidence for legal proceedings. This approach allows experts to offer their services across different locations without needing to be physically present at the examination site. It's especially useful in cases where local forensic expertise or resources are limited.
