Description

See for yourself why 3D and 4D demonstrative evidence is such a powerful medicolegal tool. Many cases come down to objective imaging evidence, yet the jury does not have training or experience with, for example, interpretation of cross-sectional neuroanatomy imaging on MRI. New demonstrative evidence technology is the future of medicolegal work as it helps to prove the case merit for either plaintiff or defense, and do so in a way that is tangible to a lay audience.
