dc.description.abstractThis research project discusses the identification of human remains by frontal and maxillary sinus analysis. The hypothesis proposed that by using maxillary sinuses in addition to frontal sinuses for analysis the forensic professional will have a more confident technique for the identification of human remains. Subjective and objective methods of frontal sinus analysis are discussed. The Daubert Standard has changed the admissibility of scientific methods in a court of law. More objective methods of frontal sinus analysis are required in order to adhere to the Daubert Guidelines. A procedural guide has been created for forensic professionals in frontal sinus analysis in this project.
