Cannot agree with above, for answers see Pan Am 103, in particular:
Note i didn't say NO residue - just that obvious signs like shrapnel and smoke would be mostly on the parts we have not seen.
And if chem residue in small quantities ( as compared to a suitcase style bomb or one in a container ) is still present on the pieces left for photos- it would not be obvious from the photos.

Unfortunately , everyone thinks of an explosive leaving a major size flash and smoke as in pearl harbor or similar- or blowing the whole plane apart, etc

And if many parts/sections b must be examined - it does take time
