Body Mapping

Our experts in forensic body mapping and wound overlay have many years of experience both in the medical and forensic science sectors. The injuries are represented graphically using cutting edge film industry software so that the original image is never used, maintaining Court guidelines and avoiding unnecessary distress.

Our expert demonstrates both internal and external injuries, showing the direction and pathway weapons have travelled. They also demonstrate bullet trajectories and can produce three-dimensional views of the internal body structure to clearly illustrate injury.

When there is no photographic evidence of injuries, our body mapping and wound overlay expert can replicate the appearance of an injury using their specialist knowledge and expertise.

The cases that our expert has in his portfolio include those involving footwear marks where there are allegations of stamping, burns, marks and tracks left by a wide variety of weapons and tools, jewellery imprints and clothing marks.

Reports can include a digital composite where the item causing the mark can be faded in and out over the injury to graphically represent the match.

Our expert has reported cases involving forensic body mapping for many years and is at the head of his field.
