Abstract

The paper presents the research results on the coordinate distributions of maps of the degree of depolarization (MDD) of polycrystalline structures in histological sections of biological tissues (rectus abdominis muscle, skin, kidney, brain) from deceased individuals with different levels of blood loss. Based on the calculation of 1st–4th order statistical moments, the values and ranges of changes in MDD indicators were analyzed. The high efficiency and accuracy of the diffuse Mueller-matrix polarimetry method in determining the degree of blood loss were demonstrated, providing new opportunities for objective forensic medical examination. A set of maps and histograms of distributions of random values ​​of the degree of depolarization of laser radiation by blood formed elements of the polycrystalline component of histological sections of fibrillar biological tissues of deceased persons with varying degrees of blood loss were studied using the method of differential Muller matrix mapping
