Abstract

Forensic identification using new anthropological standards were developed to be applied to a specific population. Bone Computed Tomography (CT) reconstruction images have been reported in this forensic field. This study aimed to assess the sexual dimorphism by measuring the upper end plate width of fifth lumbar vertebra as well as anteroposterior diameter, transverse diameter, perimeter, area of the first sacral vertebra and width of sacral ala using abdominal computed tomography in 200 adult Egyptians. All measurements showed significant difference in sex identification except the width of sacral ala.
