Abstract in brief
- The study used various imaging techniques, including radiography and CT scans, to examine a 5300-year-old mummy called the Iceman, revealing well-preserved bones and dehydrated soft tissues.
- The Iceman's skeleton showed signs of trauma like healed rib fractures, skull fractures, and chest compression, as well as other health conditions such as arthritis and frostbite, indicating his similarities to modern humans.
- An arrowhead found lodged in his chest was likely the cause of death, and the images also offered valuable insights into the natural and postmortem processes that resulted in his preservation as a mummy.]
