Forensic Pathology is a job of forensics. It is the study of the human corpse to determine the cause of death and maybe even the particular time frame of death. A forensic pathologist would have to first start with the crimes scene investigation. He would wanna know all the surrounding of the corpse and the body position of the corpse. Every little thing find at the crime scene would be a very big help. After the crime scene investigation they would take the body back to the lab and they would perform what is called an Autopsy. An autopsy is a postmortem examination to discover the cause of death or the extent of disease. The autopsy starts with an external examination. The pathologist weighs the body, measures the body and notes the bodies…
growth of the general curtailment. This article examines “laboratory operations” and “clinical pathology knowledge processes” to discuss the need for clinical pathologist to implement an institutional model through unified laboratory networks to protect their services. The author utilizes strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) methodology to study data processes and propose future strategies for clinical pathologist and laboratories to build laboratory service networks that…
Growing up I always wanted to be in a career that would make a significant difference, it wasn't until 10th grade where I saw an article on pathology and it was then that I knew this would be the career for me. Pathology can be defined as “a branch of medical science primarily concerning the cause, origin and nature of disease. It involves the examination of tissues, organs, bodily fluids and autopsies in order to study and diagnose disease” (Sally Robertson). The work that this career does is…

Forensic pathology is the study of discovering the cause of death by examining a person’s dead body. A forensic pathologist therefore would be the person examining a corpse attempting to figure out what happened to the person to cause death, yet this job is much more complex than it may sound. They are also required to “…examine and diagnose bodily fluids, such as blood and urine or tissues from biopsies and Pap smears, to diagnose disease” (“Pathologist: Job Duties, Occupational Outlook, and…

pathologists, caused by a growing workload, could potentially threaten the education of special needs students. Today, special educators are faced with growing responsibilities that can be challenging. While trying to meet all the needs of their students with disabilities, special educators have rising levels of paperwork, complex caseloads, and limited resources to handle (Woltmann and Camron 178). Demanding responsibilities are causing stress and burnout within the field of…
As a Speech-Language-Hearing undergraduate, I have had a combination of experiences and learning opportunities that have prepared me to enter Emerson College’s graduate school program and become a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP). In my personal life, I have always wanted to be part of a profession that serves the public. My mother is a social worker and my father is a public health administrator, which means serving others is in my blood and was modeled to me from a young age. Growing up…
In 2009, the National Academy of Sciences estimated that fewer than 500 physicians were practicing forensic pathology in the United States. This could be due to the strenuous academics workload in order to be a certified pathologist. This is alarming due to the approximately 20 percent of deaths that are subject to investigation by medical examiners (American Autopsy Facts, n.d.). Another reason for the low number of practicing forensic pathologist is the salary; the average pay is between…
