Abstract

In forensic investigation difficulties are being experienced in the regarding stature of bodies dismembered in mass destruction. So as to eliminate these difficulties, new methods should be developed. The aim of this study is to develop formulae for estimation of the stature through foot measurements and foot digital print parameters and compare the accuracy between both. Material and methods, the length, width and foot heel width measurements of the right foot were taken adding to these measures (for print parameters) each foot print toe length as well as stature have been taken from 160 adult subjects (80 males and 80 females). Results revealed that, in males, stature and foot measurements were higher than in females. The highest correlation was observed in the right foot length when stature and foot measurement relations were evaluated. Formulae were obtained by using multiple regression analysis for stature estimation for both anthropometric measures and digital print parameters showing lower standard error of estimation for anthropometric method. Key words: right foot, anthropometric measures and digital print.
