SHADOW is a complete tool case for forensic pathologist.

Currently it contains following features:

1. Forensic Pathology

a) Time of death estimation based on Hennsge.

2. Forensic Anthropology

a) Stature Estimation, based on long bone types (femur, humerus, radius, tibia) and different scientific methods: Pearson (1899) Trotter (1970) Penning (2006) Ramsthaler et. al. (CT-Scan, 2009). SHADOW estimates the stature, based on different regression formulas of long bones for males and females.

b) Sex estimator, includes a metric (Pelvis) and a morphologic method (Skull). The Pelvis Method (Novotny 1972) requires the length of pubicus and ischio). The Skull Method according to Knussmann (1988) and others uses a scoring model based on several attributes of the skull.

Further futures are coming soon i.e. ancestry estimation, metric sex estimation based on discriminant function, PMI, data export and others.
