Abstract

It is rare for a radioactive body to come to autopsy. Nevertheless, these situations will occasionally occur, and when they do, it may or may not be known in advance that the body contains radioactive material. Even where systems exist to notify the presence of radioactive material, they are not entirely reliable and it is inevitable that some bodies will only be discovered to contain radioactive material during the autopsy procedure.
