Forensic science is the discipline concerned with the systematic examination and interpretation of evidence obtained from crime scenes, employing a range of scientific methodologies. The field of forensic science comprises a range of specialised sub-disciplines within the field of criminal investigation plays a distinct role in the complex process of piecing together evidence, contributing to the creation of a cohesive narrative. In the field of forensic medicine, the significance of forensic science is further accentuated. The field of forensic science is of greatest importance in the context of postmortem examinations, as these examinations are carried out with the primary objective of determining the cause and manner of death in deceased individuals. Autopsies, which are fundamental to the field of forensic medicine, are performed in order to determine the physiological and pathological characteristics of a deceased individual. Forensic pathologists, in conjunction with forensic scientists, engage in thorough examinations utilising a variety of equipment, including microscopes, advanced imaging techniques, digital histopathological techniques, leveraging their substantial medical expertise. The collaboration between multiple disciplines ensures a holistic comprehension of the deceased individual’s state, revealing key observations regarding the factors that contributed to their death. The chapter will be describing the significance of “Forensic Science” in the field of forensic medicine and its future scope.
