    Innovative instruments in forensic medicine
    (Department of Forensic Medicine, Faculty of Medicine at University of Peradeniya, 2017) Paranitharan, P.; Hulathduwa, S.R.
    Innovation is a hallmark of advancement of science. Forensic professionals, together with other experts and equipment manufacturers, can help to design modern and novel equipment to enhance the quality of work and scientific validity. The major branches, such as Clinical Forensic Medicine and Forensic Pathology, need modern equipment as in other disciplines in Medicine. Creative ideas need support and link to the right individuals.

    A current need for modern instruments in forensic pathology: a way forward
    (Department of Forensic Medicine, Faculty of Medicine at University of Peradeniya, 2016) Paranitharan, P.; Hulathduwa, S.R.
    Routine dissection of the cadaver followed by mandatory and ancillary investigations is still the most widely used method in forensic autopsy throughout the globe. In contrast to most other disciplines of medicine, instruments used in routine autopsy work remain plain, simple, unsophisticated and virtually unchanged for over a century. Incorporation of modern technology to improve these instruments to meet the new challenges such as minimizing the risk of bio-hazards, acquisition of precision in dissection, facilities for simultaneous imaging, sampling and archiving the information and finally making the dissection a less cumbersome a task with lesser degree of dependability on individual human skills has become the need of the day. The authors briefly discuss few initiative steps taken along this long pathway.
