Use of CT post-mortem examinations
This policy statement sets out the HTA’s position on the use of CT (computer tomography) post-mortem examinations. It has been developed as a result of technological advances in CT post-mortem examinations.
Professionals carrying out CT post-mortem examinations can refer to this and identify whether a HTA license is required.
We are reviewing licencing requirements for the use of non-invasive CT in determining cause of death. Any changes to our position will be incorporated into Code B: Post-mortem examination.
