ConceptDescription

Traumatic Wound: Wound caused by a gunshot, and classified into entrance wounds, exit wounds and wound tracks. Entrance wounds have varying effects on tissues, e.g. impact of the bullet alone or burns from gunpowder, according to the range at which the gun is fired. A bullet may pierce through a human body, stop inside the body, injure the body surface or scrape over the skin surface, depending on the shooting range, bullet angle and body angle.
