TEXTBOOK OF FORENSIC HISTOPATHOLOGY (FLEXIBOUND 2022)

The book attempts to develop and bring in a culture of quality forensic services and bridge the gap in the current postgraduate forensic training in the subcontinent where histopathology is either not taught properly or taught superficially to forensic pathology practitioners. If histopathology is being practiced by forensic practitioners then they can resolve a majority of cases. In fact, this is a kind of modular teaching at postgraduate level. Histopathology is a very important investigation in deciding sudden natural death, time of injury and specific findings in certain cases.
