利用额窦影像进行个体识别的研究进展

鉴于额窦不规则气腔形态的高度特异性、成熟后形态不变的稳定性以及放射学技术在临床的广泛应用,额窦影像已成为法医学个体识别的重要研究对象.利用额窦影像进行个体识别已具有法庭意义.当DNA和指纹等传统个体识别方法应用受限或无法有效进行,或缺乏相应的牙科记录等情况时,额窦影像对比是有效的个体识别替代方法.多种影像资料都可用于额...

Research Progress on Individual Identification by Frontal Sinus Imaging

Frontal sinus imaging is an important research object in forensic individual identification due to the highly specific irregular air cavity shape of frontal sinus,the stability of its shape after maturity,and the wide clinical application of radiology technology.The use of frontal sinus imaging for individual identification has significance in the court.When the application of traditional individual identification methods such as fingerprint identification and DNA analysis are limited or cannot be effectively carried out,or when the corresponding dental records are lacking and in other special cases,individual identification with frontal sinus imaging comparison is an effective alternative.Various types of image data can be used for individual identification with frontal sinus,mainly based on artificial visual comparing.With limitations such as,high professional requirements,low efficiency and small application range,the methods cannot be used in mass disasters.In recent years,some computer image recognition techniques have been used in identification of frontal sinus imagings and can significantly improve the efficiency of recognition.Difficulties such as low manual recognition efficiency may be overcomed.This study summarizes the reports on forensic individual identification using frontal sinus imaging,to review the research progress on individual identification with frontal sinus imaging,to provide a reference for further research on frontal sinus imaging,and to provide ideas for exploration and establishment of a faster,more efficient and more accurate individual identification system.
