| Abstract(in English) | This paper presents basic methods of victim identification applied in the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami on March 11, 2011. It was proved in this Earthquake/Tsunami disaster that dental identification is very effective compared with other biometric identification methods such as fingerprint/palmprint identification and DNA-based identification. Our group designed and implemented a workflow of large-scale dental identification in cooperation with Miyagi Prefectural Police and Miyagi Dental Association. This paper also discusses the potential of image-based forensic human identification techniques using medical image data such as radiographs, CTs and other modalities. |
