| this Act or by a physician appointed or designated for this
|
| 12 |
| purpose by the court. As part of the examination, the physician |
| 13 |
| shall arrange
to have color photographs taken, as soon as |
| 14 |
| practical, of areas of trauma
visible on the child and may, if |
| 15 |
| indicated, arrange to have a radiological
examination |

| performed on the child. The physician, on the completion of the
|
| 17 |
| examination, shall forward the results of the examination |

| together with the
color photographs to the State's Attorney of |
| 19 |
| the county of the court ordering
such examination. The court |
| 20 |
| may dispense with the examination in those cases
which were |
| 21 |
| commenced on the basis of a physical examination by a |
| 22 |
| physician.
Unless color photographs have already been taken or |
| 23 |
| unless there are no areas
of visible trauma, the court shall |
| 24 |
| arrange to have color photographs taken if
no such examination |
| 25 |
| is conducted. |
