Digital Autopsy/ct Scanning Is Used As First Line Intervention As An Alternative To Traditional Post-mortem Examinations Within Norfolk. Patients Are Scanned Via A Ct Scanner And Images From The Scan Are Then Used By Specially Trained Radiologists And Coroners' Pathologists To Assist In Ascertaining A Cause Of Death. It Is Anticipated That A Cause Of Death Can Be Ascertained In Approximately 75% Of Cases Where Patients Have Been Scanned. This Avoids The Need To Use The More Traditional Invasive Approach To Post Mortem In These Cases.
