In recent years, forensic imaging has seen impressive developments; however, few studies exist concerning post-mortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMRI) or post-mortem magnetic resonance angiography (PMMRA). In this article two cases (one traumatic and one natural death) are described in which PMMRA was performed after multi-phase post-mortem computed tomography angiography (MPMCTA) and before the medico-legal autopsy. The results show that most of the contrast medium used and especially almost all findings were visible in MPMCTA as well as in PMMRA.
