 It is the subspecialty of pathology that focuses on the medical investigation of sudden or unexpected death.

 Anatomic: involves evaluation of tissues removed from living or dead individuals. Examples are autopsy, surgical, and cytopathology.  Clinical: involves the evaluation of the body fluids by laboratory means. Examples are hematology, microbiology, blood banking, toxicology, and immunology.

 The doctor is responsible for a forensic pathology autopsy and post mortem examinations to examine a dead body and determine the cause of death. The process involves examining the body for injury or death that directly or indirectly through a course of events causes the death of the individual. The autopsy also helps in establishing the identity of the dead body if it is not known.  The forensic pathologists work with the legal authorities and help determine the cause of sudden and unexpected deaths.  Serve as an expert witness and testifies in civil or criminal law cases.

 Complete a 4 year college degree,  Complete 4 years in medical school.  3 to 5 years residency training in general pathology.  Concentration is generally on core sciences such as biology, chemistry, physics, and psychology. English classes are also very important.  Outlook for jobs? Pretty decent, forensic pathologists are hired by regional, state, and local laboratories as well as private firms, colleges, military and federal agencies. hology.jpg

 Communications: half the job is writing reports and giving testimony.  Management: a forensic pathologist has to work with many people and lead them in investigations.  Intestinal fortitude: meaning you have a strong stomach.  Confidence: a pathologist must be able to defend their conclusions against lawyers, the media, and victims families.
