About
Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council awarded a contract to Advanced Visualisation Technologies Ltd T/A Digital Autopsy UK for the provision of digital autopsy (CT scanning) services for the Black Country Coroners Service, covering Sandwell, Walsall, Dudley, and Wolverhampton.
The contract, valued at £2,065,000, provides CT scanning as a first-line intervention alternative to traditional post-mortem examinations.
Scans are used by specially trained radiologists and coroners' pathologists to ascertain cause of death, with an anticipated success rate of approximately 75% in scanned cases, thereby avoiding invasive post-mortem procedures in those instances.
