Abstract

Relative motion between the brain and the cranial cavity has been postulated as a cause of injury to the brain and of rupture of the bridging veins. The shape of the cranial cavity is recorded by preparing a cast at autopsy. This information is then compared with the results of a neuropathological examination of the brain and with information on the impact to the head derived from investigation of the accident.
