The subject was a female stillbirth who was subjected to a multi-detector CT Accepted scan, revealing radiological findings consistent with the diagnosis of Available Online autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD). This was later refuted by manual autopsy that diagnosed MCDK. More studies are required before a conclusion on the validity of virtual autopsy can be reached.</p> </sec> </abstract>
