| Description | This chapter provides an overview of the pathologist's role in crime scene investigation in deaths related to asphyxia. Although asphyxia scenes tend to be more contained, there is still the possibility for the body position to have been altered prior to crime scene investigators or pathologists attending the scene. Still photography is still the backbone of all crime scene recording. The images can capture the general environment or detail specific evidential findings or procedures. Improvements in the quality of easily portable video cameras now mean that police officers, and to a certain extent other emergency services' personnel, often wear body-worn video. Crime scene investigators may record initial video footage of a scene to produce a basic 'walk-through' for use at early briefings with the investigation team. The production of computer-generated graphical representations of scenes of crime and injuries on bodies for court purposes has become a mini industry in itself.
