Need to be an MD or ME. Also.....it is autopsy. There are thousands of more difficult words to spell in medical school.

I believe it's called a Medical Examiner. The field you would be in is Forensics. Best of Luck!

What you're talking about is the work of a medical examiner, aka forensic science technicians. If you are interested in doing this work you'll need at least a bachelor's degree, and it can be pretty gruesome. http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos115.htm has more info.
