Can you request a Digital Autopsy?

In cases where a Coroner is involved, families may request a Digital Autopsy, however the Coroner must decide whether that is appropriate. A Digital Autopsy will be offered only if
the Coroner believes it will establish a cause of death.

In deaths where the Coroner is not involved, families can contact iGene directly to request a Digital Autopsy. iGene will review the circumstances surrounding the death and advise whether a Digital Autopsy is an appropriate option.
