A multidisciplinary team from the University of Leicester and University Hospitals of Leicester National Health Service Trust in the U.K. are now offering postmortem CT scanning as an alternative to traditional autopsy for investigating unexplained deaths.
Available for adults of all ages, the virtual autopsy service can be purchased by the family and will be performed within NHS hospitals. It was developed from research performed at the University of Leicester and supported by the HM Coroners of Leicestershire, according to the university.
