Abstract

An evidence-based psychotraumatological expert assessment should include a thorough clarification of the diagnoses on different levels of findings and an inclusion of modern methods to clarify the authenticity. The surgical examiner is of great importance in the cooperation since he mostly undertakes the initial documentation, including psychological damage, and ultimately evaluates the overall damage after an assessment. A good interdisciplinary understanding and appreciation are therefore the prerequisite for a comprehensible expert assessment.
