Slotin's hands, shortly after the accident — before the one that was too close started blistering. The black dot is on his hand, not a photo artifact. I only took photos of a few of these medical pics — the rest were too unpleasant.pic.twitter.com/ZicQnKYqD6

The photos have one terrible time break in them where in one of them, he's alive (if suffering), and then the next is a bunch of organs on a dissection table...

That's my understanding, though I don't know whether he signed any informed consent forms (I doubt it)...
