Scan alternative to a post mortem
Ailsa Cranna5/ 6/2008
SALFORD’S coroner is promoting a revolutionary replacement for the post mortem to help reduce the grief felt by mourning families who do not want their loved one to undergo intrusive examination.
Instead of traditional surgical methods, coroner Jennifer Leeming is offering relatives the choice to electronically scan the deceased to determine the cause of death.

Correction to last post.
Should have read "none intrusive"

"The MRI scans cost £500, with subsequent scans costing £350".
I take it the "Jewish community" and others, choosing the scan, will be paying for it?.
I am amazed at how far this technology has advanced, to the point of detecting poisons and toxins that may have caused death (?), if it does not then perhaps a rise in purchases of poisonous substances may result in these "intrusive examinations".

We can all do that. I can come up with a cause of death by reading tea leaves. Coming up with the correct cause of death is a little more tricky.
