Measurement of intracranial hematoma using the improved cubature formula / 法医学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#The more accurate calculate method was investigated according to the improved formula of intracranial hematoma using segment deducing.@*METHODS@#The improved formula was deduced to calculate the intracranial hematoma using the volume formula of the solid geometry. The volume of intracranial hematoma was measured as a related accurate standards using software. The volumes of intracranial hematoma calculated by the improved formula, Tada's formula and the software were compared.@*RESULTS@#The measure accuracy of the improved formula was higher than that of Tada's formula, and showed a similarity with that by using software method.@*CONCLUSION@#The improved formula method shows a more accurate result than Tada's formula, and can be used in forensic practice.
