Abstract

Personal identification was the major task of forensic doctors in Thailand's Tsunami. Identification can be done by visual identification, circumstantial evidence and physical evidence. Among the physical evidences dental data is the most effective method of identification, followed by fingerprint and DNA. A disaster Identification team should be set up to handle the problems and plan for the future.
