  • Title: Matching bullets to bone impact signatures.
    Author: Smith OC, Symes SA, Berryman HE, LeVaughn MA.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 1991 Nov; 36(6):1736-9. PubMed ID: 1770340.
    Abstract:
    When bone is penetrated or perforated by a bullet, the bullet's impacting surface is often uniquely modeled by the fractured bone. Reconstructing bone with simple super-imposition of the bullet's contour lines allows matching of a particular bullet to its specific bone defect.
