What are the standard things that get sent to be tested during autopsies in say an unknown non suspicious death and for what? Like what standard drugs and levels are tested for in blood, or parts of certain organs?
I wanted to be a pathologist once upon a time but I know now I wouldn’t cope well with the gore and the sadness. You are doing a good thing and I admire people who do that type of work, bringing closure to families and also learning and teaching for future cases.
