Kanaf Centre Adopts Advanced Forensic System to Strengthen Child Protection Evidence
Kanaf Centre has adopted the Safe Ultra System, a specialized technology designed for child forensic examination rooms, as part of its efforts to enhance child safety. This system enables medical teams to identify physical injuries with high accuracy, including those not readily visible.
The integration of this advanced technology strengthens case documentation through scientifically robust methods, aiding legal proceedings and safeguarding children’s rights. Kanaf is the first centre in the UAE and Middle East to incorporate this upgraded version into its procedures, prioritizing each child’s psychological and social needs while preserving their dignity and privacy.
Powered by ForenScope CMS, the technology utilizes multispectral imaging to reveal indicators not detectable under conventional lighting. It can identify bruises, contusions, bite marks, scratches, lacerations, burns, and vascular changes. It also detects body fluids associated with criminal cases and sexual assaults, facilitating sample collection.
A secure digital case management platform allows teams to:
- Review images
- Prepare and edit reports
- Process information
- Archive records centrally
Each case is documented and tracked through a clear procedural sequence, ensuring evidence integrity and legal admissibility. Kanaf’s forensic medicine team has received specialized training to use this technology within established workflows. This investment builds specialist expertise, strengthens national capabilities, and aligns forensic practice with international standards.
By streamlining the assessment-to-reporting process, the technology produces reliable outputs in various formats while preserving data quality. It minimizes error risk and enables efficient case management without compromising child safety or privacy.
This development reflects Kanaf’s broader role in raising community awareness, preventing risks, and fostering a culture of child protection.
