[The importance of the autopsy in quality control of medicine (possibilities in the Hungarian conditions)].
The authors have examined the importance of the autopsy from several aspects of view as the primary cause of death, comparison between clinical and pathological diagnosis, recognition of clinically unknown diseases, as well as new anatomical constellations, epidemiological data, assessment of effectiveness of modern imaging technics, authenticity of statistic concerning the cause of death and the quality control in medicine general. Data of the literature and computer system of authors based on several thousands autopsies proves that the post mortem investigation is the most effective method in evaluation of reliability of imaging technics too. The autopsy even in the XXI. century seems to be of greatest value for quality control of medical activity, except in cases when clinical diagnosis can be made biochemically only. In order to fulfill these requirements mentioned above a high level technical control of the autopsy technic itself is also needed.
