What is an autopsy and how is it performed?

An autopsy is a  surgical procedure that consists of a thorough examination of a corpse by dissection to determine the cause of death and to evaluate any injury or disease  that may be present. The extent of an autopsy can vary from the examination of a single organ such as the heart or brain. Examination of the chest, abdomen, and brain is considered by most pathologists as the standard scope of the autopsy. It begins with a complete external examination.

An autopsy is a highly specialized surgical procedure that consists of a thorough examination of a corpse to determine the cause and manner of death and to evaluate any disease or injury that may be present. It is usually performed by a specialized medical doctor called a pathologist.
