What does MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE mean?
- Medical jurisprudence
- Medical jurisprudence or legal medicine is the branch of science and medicine involving the study and application of scientific and medical knowledge to legal problems, such as inquests, and in the field of law. As modern medicine is a legal creation, regulated by the state, and medicolegal cases involving death, rape, paternity, etc. require a medical practitioner to produce evidence and appear as an expert witness, these two fields have traditionally been interdependent.Forensic medicine, which includes forensic pathology, is a narrower frontline field which involves the collection, documentation, analysis and presentation of objective information (medical evidence) for use in the legal system.When investigating a death, forensic pathologists: - perform autopsies when required - may be appointed as coroners to investigate cases of suspicious death - determine the cause of death and all other factors that relate to the body directly - may attend crime scenes - frequently testify in court.The Australian Museum shows in a step by step virtual demonstration what happens during an autopsy procedure.
