RT Journal A1 Friedrich MJ T1 CAn imaging help revive the autopsy? JF JAMA JO JAMA YR 2012 FD April 11 VO 307 IS 14 SP 1471 OP 1472 DO 10.1001/jama.2012.428 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.2012.428 AB Despite these many benefits, the hospital autopsy has fallen out of favor and is now used primarily in forensic investigations.
