Kazakhstan to introduce CT scans in forensic medicine
The Kazakh Justice Ministry developed the draft amendments to regulations that will allow the use of computer tomography (CT scans) in forensic medical examinations, Qazinform News Agency reports.
The draft suggests introducing and using modern non‑invasive methods for determining causes of death, including CT imaging.
Standards and requirements for forensic facilities will be amended to include CT scanners and specially equipped rooms for their installation.
The draft amendments are open for public discussion on the Open NPA portal until February 17, 2026.
