Abstract. The article is devoted to the possibilities of innovative research methods in forensic medicine-scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersion analysis. The described methods were used in conducting experimental studies in the case of a gunshot retrograde injury. Aim. The purpose of the work was to study the particles formed during the destruction of a semi-shell shell and an obstacle (triplex car glass) when fired from a hunting Saiga carbine with 5. 45x39 cartridges. Material and methods. Car triplex windshields from BMW and Mercedes-Benz cars were used as a barrier. The shots were fired from a hunting Saiga carbine with a 5.45x39 cartridge. The shots were fired from a distance of 10 m. As targets, white calico with dimensions of 100x150 cm was used, stretched on a wooden frame, or fixed on a chipboard. The distance between the target and the barrier was 100 cm, which roughly corresponded to the distance from the windshield of the car to the driver and the passenger in the front seat. The studies were carried out using the SEM "Hitachi FlexSem1000 II" and the energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer "Bruker Quantax 80". Results. As a result of the conducted research with the help of microscopy, the presence of 7 types of foreign bodies on the surface of the target was established, which are the products of the destruction of the fire projectile and the barrier: glass fragments; glass fragments; crumbly deposition of glass particles; glass fragments caked with the metal of the projectile; fragments of the projectile; spherical metal particles; overlays of molten metal in the form of puddles. With the help of energy dispersion analysis, it was possible to determine the elemental composition of the particles of the barrier, the fire shell, and to identify the overlap of the target particles. Conclusion. As a result of the experimental study, it was found that the use of SEM and EDS analysis significantly increases the effectiveness and evidence-based expert research in solving the problems of causing damage through the barrier-the windscreen of modern cars. Key words: scanning electron microscopy, gunshot trauma, energy dispersion analysis, fragments of the barrier.

The article describes dynamics of forensic medical examinations on cases of doctors of therapeutic specialities. Special attention is paid to examinations on cases of cardiologists and pulmonologists. Studying archival documents we determined the peculiarities of defects of delivery of health care in a number of cardiologic and pulmonologic specialities.
