Beschrijving

‘Autopsy. Lost in Time?’ offers a comprehensive examination of the ongoing importance of clinical autopsies. It highlights the significance of understanding factors affecting autopsy rates and implementing strategies to counteract their decline. Even in the age of advanced diagnostic technologies, autopsies remain crucial for accurate diagnoses and improving clinical care quality. Additionally, it demonstrates the feasibility and value of post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT) alongside clinical autopsies, providing supplementary information and serving as an alternative when autopsy consent is unavailable. Overall, the dissertation represents a step towards reevaluating and enhancing autopsy practices, essential for reinstating this age-old yet invaluable medical procedure.

Dr. Bartholomeus G.H. Latten serves as a forensic pathologist at the Netherlands Forensic Institute. His primary research focus lies in utilizing postmortem and forensic imaging techniques within clinical and forensic pathology. Dedicated to enhancing the field of death investigation, Dr. Latten actively participates in and leads various (inter)national working groups and committees.
