A medical examiner is a medically qualified officer whose duty is to investigate deaths and injuries that occur under unusual or suspicious circumstances, to perform post-mortem examinations, and in some jurisdictions to initiate inquests.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nlm.nih.gov/visibleproofs/galleries/cases/examiner.html )〕 ==Job roles== A medical examiner's duties may vary depending on location. Typically, a medical examiners duties may include: * investigating human organs like the stomach, liver, brain, * determining cause of death, * issuing death certificates, * maintaining death records, * responding to deaths in mass disasters, * identifying unknown dead, or * performing other functions depending on local law. In some jurisdictions, a coroner performs these and other duties. Within the United States, there is a mixture of coroner and medical examiner systems, and in some states, dual systems. The requirements to hold office vary widely between jurisdictions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Medical examiner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
