This retrospective study evaluates the impact of combining postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) and postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMR) of the head in forensic investigations. The findings suggest that integrating PMMR with PMCT enhances lesion detection, particularly in soft tissue structures, thereby improving diagnostic accuracy in determining causes of death.
