Digital Autopsy Consultation

Islam teaches utmost respect for the dead. The Prophet (peace be upon him) forbade us from mutilating dead bodies. He (peace be upon him) said that breaking the bones of a dead person is like breaking them when he is alive. Muslims cannot even cut the nails or hair of the deceased. For this reason cutting the flesh and sewing it up again without reason (when other procedures are available) is NOT allowed. the pain for the deceased as well as the family cannot be put into words

However we have some GOOD NEWS!!!!

Walthamstow Forest are seeking consultation regarding the proposed installation of a Digital Autopsy suite at the Queens Road Mortuary. 

The aim is to provide an on site non-invasive post mortem autopsy for residents of the borough and greater surrounding areas.

A digital autopsy is an advanced process that utilises software and a digital scan of the deceased to allow a precise, timeley , low risk examination to be conducted which in the vast majority of cases WILL NOT require any physical autopsy. 

Mortuary Service Operations Manager is currently preparing a business case to support a feasibility report and would greatly appreciate any feedback you have on the proposal. 

More information on the digital autopsy process can be found on : www.digitalautopsy.co.uk 

We have been campaigning for a number of years for such a service and we now have an opportunity to do something about it. We need you to show your support and email/write to the coroner expressing our support and need for the Digital Autopsy suite in Waltham forest and as a resident fully endorse it.
