This is 38 year old white female. Patient has several issue, chronic back pain, left eye blindness, leg neuraliga and numbness, insomnia, depression Hep B&C positive. Patient reports MVA 18 years ago, lost her mother and father and injured her back and lost her right eye sight. Patient has a history of chronic depression and night terror and she was taking seroquel. Patient has impaired hip joint immobility related injury and chronic pain. Patient reports she is depressed but denies thoughts of suicide or homicide. Patient states she has a history of iv drug use, and her sexual encounter are only with other females. Patient was diagnosed with Hep B &C and doesn't know what to do. Also it has been a long time since she had her eyes checked.

Coming from the Greek word “autopsia” the word autopsy means, “to see with one’s own eyes.” In an autopsy, the body is analyzed, both internally and externally, to determine the cause and manner of that person’s death by identifying any diseases, wounds, or abnormalities found throughout the body (Stöppler, np). Medical examiners must consider the medical history of the deceased as well as analyze toxicology reports from blood and urine samples taken during the autopsy process (“Forensic Pathology Career & Salary Outlook,” np). Disease progression as well as the effectiveness of any treatments given can also be determined from an autopsy. Provided that this knowledge can be obtained, autopsies are considered to be a part of the field of pathology, or the study of the cause and effects of disease. This information on diseases can be particularly beneficial for research purposes as well as informative to families about illnesses that may be genetic (Stöppler, np). Upon completing the examination, a report is filed stating whether the findings suggested suicidal, homicidal, accidental, or natural causes of death and also covering the basic findings of the case. Finally, a death certificate must be prepared for the physician of the deceased to sign (“Medical Examiner,”

John Doe was diagnosed with Lupus and Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) at the Ahuja Medical Center by Doctor Fletcher. Fletcher, a surgeon at Ahuja Medical Center, then started to receive phone calls from fellow employees who conveyed their condolences and concern, as well as a understanding of the fact that he suffered from Lupus and a STD. Soon, John Doe started receiving calls from friends inside his community, and then from patients. Within a few weeks, the hospital had suspended Fletcher privileges at Ahuja Medical Center, restraining his ability to treat patients.

I confirm that I am registered with the Medical Board of Australia as a Specialist General Surgeon, with my practice largely confined to Colorectal Surgery. My qualifications are Bachelor of Medicine, and Bachelor of Surgery with Honours (1979) from the University of New South Wales, Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (1987), Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England (1987) and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. I am a member of, and past Director of, the Colorectal Surgical Society of Australia and New Zealand.

Through a little research on the internet, a website called “Bodies Revealed” informed me of the process used to preserve the bodies, which is known as “polymer preservation.” The bodies that are used first are embalmed according to standard procedures and perfused with a preserving agent to prevent the normal tissue decay that takes place after death. After the body is embalmed, a trained dissector prepares it, or a part of it, according to predetermined guidelines. Because of the degree of difficulty involved in dissecting a full body specimen, it can take several months to complete. If the dissector is working with individual organs, they can be prepared much more quickly. After the dissection is complete, the specimens are thoroughly rinsed in cold running water, which removes as much of the preserving agent as possible. Rinsing a full-body specimen can take up to one week to finish. After the rinsing, the specimen is ready to be dehydrated. They dehydrate the specimens by placing it in acetone, which acts to replace all of the tissue water present in the specimen. The specimen is then impregnated with a mixture of liquid silicone polymer and a crosslinker. The polymer hardens during a curing process, which leaves a dry, odorless specimen that doesn’t decompose. I had the

An autopsy is an examination of the body after death. It usually consists of an external and an internal examination of the body. The external examination also documents identifying features such as scars, tattoos or other markings which may assist in the identification of the body. The internal examination looks at the internal organs to document any natural disease processes and/or injury .Its purpose is to learn the truth about the persons health during life and how the person really died, These situations include, violent deaths such as homicides, accidents, and suicides. Other categories are suspicious deaths, sudden and expected deaths, deaths in children and infants, prisoners, persons under the care of an institution,

This process includes five imperative steps that enable us to be persevered after death. The first step, embalming and anatomical dissection, is a process involving halting decay by pumping formalin into the body through the arteries. The formalin will kill the bacteria throughout our bodies and chemically stops the decay of the tissue. Than, using dissection tools, the skin and fatty and connective tissues are removed to prepare the individual anatomical structures. The second step, removal of body fat and water, is a process which water and soluble fats are dissolved from the body by placing it into a solvent bath (which is basically called an acetone bath.) The third step, forced impregnation, is quite the interesting step. During this process, a reactive polymer (silicone rubber) replaces the acetone. The specimen is immersed in a polymer solution and placed in vacuum chamber. The vacuum than removes the

The years after the introduction of total mesorectal excision, lead to a major improvement in the survival of rectal cancer. Since its introduction, the five-year survival rates increased from 45%-50% to 75% and the local recurrence rates decreased from 30% to 5%-8%.[1] The technique is based on the principle that dissection in the mesorectal plane, produces an intact fascial-lined specimen, which contains all the blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and lymph nodes, through which the tumor may disseminate.[2, 3]

According to Sapolsky, chronic stress induces several morphological changes within the body that can affect what is being observed during an autopsy (Sapolsky, 1998). When individuals live in chronically stressful conditions, there is a constant pressure on their adrenal glands in order to produce hormones, which then results in

The goal of this thesis is to identify the effect of soft tissue constituent materials in tissue
