During this time important samples that were taken during the examination are processed by a laboratory to provide definitive results. Toxicology reports, for example, can help Dr. Chundru determine if a death caused by an overdose was accidental or suicidal.
Knowing exactly what circumstances resulted in a death can help bring closure to family members left behind. Chundru has witnessed firsthand how the relatively quick window of opportunity for requesting a private autopsy can seem like a whirlwind to those who are grieving, while also trying to make funeral arrangements.

A post-mortem examination, also known as an autopsy, is the examination of a body after death. The aim of a post-mortem is to determine the cause of death. Post-mortems are carried out by pathologists doctors who specialise in understanding the nature and causes of disease.
Post-mortems provide useful information about how, when and why someone died. They enable pathologists to obtain a better understanding of how diseases spread. Learning more about illnesses and medical conditions benefits patients too, because it means they'll receive more effective treatment in the future.
If your child, partner or relative has died and a post-mortem is to be carried out, hospital bereavement officers can offer you support and advice. They also act as the main point of contact between you and the staff carrying out the post-mortem. The main aim of a post-mortem requested by a coroner is to find out how someone died and decide whether an inquest is needed.
If someone related to you has died and their death has been referred to a coroner, you won't be asked to give consent permission for a post-mortem to take place. This is because the coroner is required by law to carry out a post-mortem when a death is suspicious, sudden or unnatural. A coroner may decide to hold an inquest after a post-mortem has been completed.
Samples of organs and tissues may need to be retained until after the inquest has finished. If the death occurred in suspicious circumstances, samples may also need to be kept by the police as evidence for a longer period.
The coroner's office will discuss the situation with you if, following an inquest, tissue samples need to be retained for a certain length of time. Post-mortems are sometimes requested by hospital doctors to provide more information about an illness or the cause of death, or to further medical research. Sometimes the partner or relative of the deceased person will request a hospital post-mortem to find out more about the cause of death.
Hospital post-mortems can only be carried out with consent. Sometimes a person may have given their consent before they died. If this isn't the case, a person close to the deceased can give their consent for a post-mortem to take place. Hospital post-mortems may be limited to particular areas of the body, such as the head, chest or abdomen. Tarrant County College. Jobs with Tarrant County. Assumed Name DBA. ADA Accommodation.
