Virtopsy the future of forensics

Transforming the work of forensic pathologists, the Virtopsy project is a suite of non-invasive imaging techniques that is revolutionising police investigations in both the living and the dead. Virtual autopsy or digital autopsy is a non-invasive attempt to answer the questions that would normally require a conventional autopsy. The digital autopsy can also help in cases where religious faith may make a conventional dissection difficult. Virtopsy can act as a triage system for full scalpel autopsies, making many unnecessary. It can also up-skill the pathologists by allowing them to spend more time on analysis and interpretation rather than dissection and recording.
