Use potential of large arteries age elasticity changes for forensic medical determination of body parts of corpse

Abstract

The results of study of elasticity age changes of walls of right and left carotid, brachial and femoral arteries based on the autopsy material have been presented. Mathematical analysis has shown the unidirectional dynamics and absence of essential differences of indices of arterial walls elasticity between right and left equally topographically placed arteries (carotid, brachial and femoral) in various age groups. The conclusion about use perspective of age changes of arterial walls elasticity during the forensic medical expertise of fragmented bodies has been made
