Abstract
The concept of brain death has become important in law and medicine, replacing in some instances the concept of circulatory arrest as a definition of death. Yet, brain death has not been established as a clear clinical or pathologic entity, a point brought out here by comparison of criteria for identification. The need for more research is evident.Keywords
