Abstract:
Subtle color changes in the brain during autopsy may provide valuable clues toward the cause of death. Although often overlooked, these findings-when interpreted in conjunction with history and circumstantial evidence-can significantly aid forensic diagnosis. We report two deaths due to gaseous exposure in which discoloration of brain tissue provided an important clue in determining the cause of death.
