TLDR
It was showed that PMCTA, similar to clinical radiological investigations, is able to precisely identify lesions of arterial and/or venous vessels and thus determine the source of bleeding in cases of acute hemorrhages with fatal outcomes.About:

Virtopsy, a new imaging horizon in forensic pathology: virtual autopsy by postmortem multislice computed tomography (MSCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)--a feasibility study
Michael J. Thali,Kathrin Yen,Wolf Schweitzer,Peter Vock,Chris Boesch,Christoph Ozdoba,Gerhard Schroth,Michael Ith,Martin Sonnenschein,Tanja Doernhoefer,Eva Scheurer,Thomas Plattner,Richard Dirnhofer +12 more
TL;DR: Using postmortem multislice computed tomography (MSCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 40 forensic cases were examined and findings were verified by subsequent autopsy Results were classified as follows: (I) cause of death, relevant traumatological and pathological findings, (III) vital reactions, (IV) reconstruction of injuries, (V) visualization.

TL;DR: Preliminary results, based on the concept of "virtopsy," are promising enough to introduce and evaluate these radiological techniques in forensic medicine.

TL;DR: CT was a more accurate imaging technique than MRI for providing a cause of death compared with traditional autopsy, and could therefore be acceptable for medicolegal purposes.
