dc.description.abstractPink spots are sharply demarcated round to oval discolorations with a white center in the deeper areas of the formalin-fixed brain. In 152 forensic autopsies with neuropathological examinations, the authors observed pink spots in three of 16 patients with bacterial infectious diseases. Pink spots could not be found in 136 patients without bacterial infectious diseases. These results verify the concept that pink spots correlate with bacterial infections. The presence of pink spots will be used as an indication of infectious diseases in the forensic autopsy.en_US
