Progress in sex determination of calcaneus Of: Zhang Hui Ren Wenyan ROCKETS Zhang Huiqin [Abstract] dismembered, burned his body, explosion and other on-site identification of unknown bones in the forensic practice of gender plays an important role, this paper reviews the recent home and abroad through the calcaneus gender inference research. And X-ray film using the calcaneus inference of gender were discussed. [Keywords:] forensic anthropology; sex characteristics; calcaneus; Radiography The actual inspection work in forensic science, in the dismembered the scene, the scene of the explosion site and the bones of the dead human body parts are often encountered, the body after the explosion and fragments of human bones. At this point, forensic issues should be resolved first and foremost is to determine the unidentified bodies (dead block) of gender. using a full set of human bones is not difficult to infer gender, but human body parts for the remaining part of the site, the use of on-site limited conditions to accurately speculate on the whole the victim of sex work plays an important investigation of cases role. more mature use of bones to determine sex are mostly based on some morphological characteristics, identification of human experience often have higher requirements. In recent years, with the rapid development of medical imaging, which led to the use of bone X-rays to infer gender studies, this method can overcome the traditional anthropological examination must destroy soft tissue, the use of specialized instruments to measure time-consuming, cumbersome and not conducive to the integrity of the evidence preserved body parts to prepare for the shortcomings of other tests, measuring the results more objective and accurate. bones in the body, calcaneal smaller, but dense bone structure, role by the great violence, the destruction of its structural integrity is not easy, than long bone, pelvis, skull preserved more complete, so the use of gender cal
