Annotation
This paper presents a study of the use of iridological analysis in forensic medical practice to identify suicidal risk. The relationship between specific changes in the iris and the psychoemotional state predisposing to suicidal behavior is considered.
A mathematical model for assessing suicidal risk based on iridological markers, as well as software for automated iridogram analysis, has been developed. The results indicate the potential of using iridodiagnostics in comprehensive forensic medical examination of suicide cases, which can help improve preventive measures for at-risk groups.
