Det er formålet at bibringe de studerende kendskab til den, for udøvelse af lægegerning, relevante lovgivning med tilhørende bestemmelser, kendskab til lægens retslige stilling i samfundet, herunder specielt de legale og etiske regler for lægens tavshedspligt respektiv anmeldelsespligt samt kendskab til de mest basale og almindelige forekommende retsmedicinske opgaver, ligsyn og attestudstedelse.

Undervisningen omfatter lovgivning i forbindelse med udøvelse af lægegerning i videste forstand, medicinsk etiske problemstillinger (de forskellige lægeetiske deklarationer, tortur og torturfølger m.v.), og den egentlige retsmedicin (læren om dødstegn, dødsmåder, forskellige former for voldelig død, klinisk retsmedicin, retsmedicinske undersøgelsesmetoder m.v.).

American Academy of Forensic Sciences
For sixty years, the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS) has served a distinguished and diverse membership. Its nearly 6,000 members are divided into ten sections spanning the forensic enterprise. Included among the Academy's members are physicians, attorneys, dentists, toxicologists, physical anthropologists, document examiners, psychiatrists, physicists, engineers, criminalists, educators, and others. Representing all 50 United States, Canada, and 52 other countries worldwide, they actively practice forensic science and, in many cases, teach and conduct research in the field as well. Each section provides opportunities for professional development, personal contacts, awards, and recognition. Many sections publish periodic newsletters and mailings which keep their members abreast of activities and developments in their field.

Embedslægerne
Embedslægeinstitutionerne er statslige myndigheder under Sundhedsministeriet. De er fagligt underlagt Sundhedsstyrelsen og er uafhængige af amtslige og kommunale myndigheder. Embedslægerne har som overordnet formål at følge sundhedstilstanden og yde sundhedsmæssig rådgivning til stat, amt og kommune.

Forensic Entomology
This site was created in order to assist in the education of crime scene technicians, homicide investigators, coroners, medical examiners, and others involved in the death investigation process. A basic knowledge of the general appearance of insect of forensic importance, and a basic understanding of the proper methods for their collection, will allow investigators to make accurate and representative collections from the death scene. Enhanced knowledge on the behalf of law enforcement officials will provide for better communication between police, medical examiners, coroners, and forensic entomologists. Hopefully, improved communication will promote more frequent use of entomological resources, and more accurate collection of entomological evidence. This will allow forensic entomologists to be more precise in their statements and determinations, particularly in the area of postmortem interval estimations. Those involved in crime scene analysis and the death investigation process are encouraged to use this site as a reference resource to enhance their investigation efforts. It is impossible to determine when insect evidence my prove useful in a death investigation. Therefore, all law enforcement agencies should assemble a "Entomological Evidence Collection Kit" so that they are prepared in the event entomological evidence is encountered during any crime scene investigation.

Kompendium i Retsmedicin
Jeg ved ikke, hvem forfatteren er, men det er i hvert fald et godt stykke arbejde, der er lavet her.

Politi
Politiet i Danmark, på Færøerne og i Grønland udgør et fælles korps, di­rekte ansat i staten. Justitsministeren er politiets øver­ste chef og udøver sin beføjelse gennem rigspolitichefen, og politidirektørerne.

"Retsmedicin - nordisk lærebog", FADL's Forlag
Stor, NY lærebog i Retsmedicin skrevet af retsmedicinske eksperter fra hele Norden.
Bogen henvender sig til medicinstuderende i Norden, men har også relevans for praktiserende læger og kan med udbytte læses af politifolk, advokater og ansatte i Justitsvæsenet.
Alle områder inden for biologisk retsmedicin er dækket i bogen, som også er helt aktuel på de samfundsmedicinske områder. Den kliniske retsmedicin har en betydelig plads i bogen. Som noget nyt har bogen et kapitel om de pårørende, ligesom tortur og dokumentation af tortur er behandlet i et særligt kapitel.
Bogens mange farveillustrationer letter indlæringen.
2. udgave af RETSMEDICIN er fuldstændig opdateret – og revideret på en række væsentlige punkter:

• Det danske lovgivningsstof er kraftigt udvidet
• Flere kapitler er suppleret med viden om specifikke danske forhold
• Mange nye illustrationer og cases

Desuden har bogen NYE kapitler om:

• Dødsfald i politiets varetægt
• CT- og MR-scannerens betydning i retsmedicinsk arbejde

"Retsmedicinsk billedatlas", FADL's Forlag
Materialet udgøres af 73 illustrationer, heraf de 71 i farver. Kvaliteten af billederne er meget høj, og billederne er bemærkelsesværdigt tidssvarende. Rent pædagogisk ligger billedatlasset sig tæt op ad både lærebog og den praktiske undervisning - således er en del af billederne kendte fra timerne. Hovedvægten er især lagt på den retsmedicinske traumatologi, og især området stump vold er vel illustreret. Et nyttigt supplement til lærebogen i retsmedicin.
