What about you?

I have published in the peer reviewed scientific literature
that you are so fond of. Have you? I'll tell you what,
why don't we match publication by publication.


Gosh Billy, I guess you're living proof a licensed physician can be
pretty well blinded by the light of selfish self interests....HUH?

Apparently his sole paying gig is doing autopsies. Even a lowly medical
examiner can tell when they're already dead. Keeps him from personally
killing anyone at least.

Actually, my primary interest at the moment is in the use of
computer vision and image analysis to medicolegal questions.
I am a consultant in visualization to the FBI, chairman of
the Image Analysis subcommittee on the Scientific Working
Group on Imaging Technologies (SWGIT) developing national
standards for forensic image acquisition, am a consultant
to the National Library of Medicine in the development
of the Insight Toolkit for the analysis of Visible Human
data(1), and am developing a protocol for the use of magnetic
resonance microscopy for the evaluation of retinal
hemorrhage in shaken baby syndrome (2). I was chosen one
of Federal Computer Week's 100 most influential federal
IT professionals in 1997, and was a Berry Prize finalist
for excellence in Military Medicine.

Certainly I do autopsies. I was involved in the investigation
of the terrorist attack on the Pentagon, and on other
cases in the current conflicts. I am quite proud
of the calling of Forensic Pathology.


Oh, and by the way.
