Abstract
A table for use in an autopsy, necropsy, pathology or dissection procedure, wherein the table comprises a base and a carrier rotatably connected to the base. The table also comprises a first tray arranged within the carrier and a second tray arranged within the carrier. The second tray is parallel to the first tray when in a first position and the second tray and the first tray having a predetermined sized gap arranged therebetween when the carrier is in a first position. The rotating autopsy table may allow for a single user of the table to perform an autopsy procedure on the front of a cadaver or body and then rotate the table on their own, such that the autopsy procedure may be continued on the back of the body without help from other equipment or other people to flip or turn the body over.
