A forensic pathologist can provide you with an independent expert opinion in the investigation of deaths natural or unnatural deaths. With a Paper Autopsy, the body of the deceased is not examined. The pathologist will use all available medical information (like medical history, records, and hospital files) and may consult with the attending clinicians.
Informed consent is needed for access to the medical information of the deceased.
This type of autopsy provides limited answers, but is most appropriate in cases where a complete or limited autopsy is not a viable option, or where the quality of the medical management and decision making needs to be assessed.
A confidential and comprehensive Opinion Report will be provided to the Requesting Authority.
