Even for the seasoned professional, physically discerning whether or not sexual abuse has occurred can be a daunting task.

This atlas provides over 1,800 photos of normal anatomy, non-assault variants and assault findings to help with the process of determining abuse. Complete case studies from experts in the field are also present, including photos of the same injury in various stages of healing, to help determine the age of the injury, as well as whether or not it stems from assault. The most comprehensive photographic atlas of sexual assault in the world, this text has photos detailing assault of people of all ages ranging from infant to assault of the elderly. Special considerations for examination and support of each age group are addressed. Never before has a single document included this information across all ages.
