Autopsy imaging(Ai)is an examination procedure to identify causes of death using CT scan or magnetic resonance imaging. Ai is performed to prevent missing a crime or in cases where a medical-related death is suspected. However, Ai system is going to be socially accepted and more popular in the future. Because CT scan is already used throughout Japan, it is possible for anybody to have Ai anywhere. No other method for identifying causes of death is as effective as Ai. Ai will play a more important role in the medical accident investigation system in the years ahead.
