Alternatively, radiographers need to have a range of experience gained by doing forensic radiography in their hospital setting.

In addition to experience and/or postgraduate education, you will need to have successfully completed one of our two-day training courses. These provide the theoretical and practical knowledge that you will need in order to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team in an incident mortuary.
