Overview

The use of CTPM scanning  in our  HM Coroner’s post mortem service in Leicester.

During this session we will discuss how the CTPM service in Leicester operates, the triaging of cases for CTPM (plain or angiography),  the importance of our Consultant Radiologist colleagues in reporting the images and how this guides us with either providing a cause of death or by refining our subsequent investigations in determining the cause of death e.g. limited or targeted invasive post mortem examination +/- histology, microbiology/virology.

This event will take place at 1:00pm and last approximately 1 hour.
