Sexual Assault Victimization Across the Life Span: A Color Atlas contains more than 1700 photographs taken in forensic examinations conducted by teams of medical practitioners and investigative personnel. This comprehensive photographic reference offers authentic clinical examples of physical findings in cases of sexual assault across the life span.
For ease of access, this atlas is divided into 7 sections representing victims at every stage of life. Detailed case studies of patients from infancy to old age include descriptions and assessments of both verified cases of sexual assault and nonassault variants for comparison. Corresponding sets of full-color exam photos demonstrate key findings indicative of either sexual assault or nonassaultive sexual contact. These cases address female and male victims and include examples of a wide variety of assaultive injuries and other types of physical evidence associated with sexual assault.
Sexual Assault Victimization Across the Life Span: A Color Atlas was designed and edited by a diverse team of medical doctors, forensic nurses and nurse practitioners, law enforcement professionals, attorneys, and victim advocates. Readers from those fields and from all other branches of the multidisciplinary team will find this broad and comprehensive atlas an essential tool for the investigation of and response to cases of sexual assault in victims of every age.

While examining suspected sexual assault survivors, it is important that investigators be able to accurately assess not only for those findings indicative of assault but also for normal or otherwise nonassaultive findings. The difference between normal and assaultive findings may be subtle, and assessing for normal findings in cases of suspected sexual violence may be challenging. That being the case, sexual assault investigators of every variety can benefit from a fast and accessible reference to support their evaluations.
Readers in medicine, law enforcement, and any organizations affiliated with sexual assault investigations will benefit from an extensive and accessible visual catalog of normal physical findings.

With a convenient visual reference at the ready, sexual assault response team members in medicine, law enforcement, and in any other field involved with the investigation of sexual assault will be well prepared to make fast and effective assessments in the field.
