There's a difference in some places between the coroner and the ...


medical examiner (pathologist). The coroner conducts a court-like proceeding and makes a ruling on whether there was criminal activity connected to the death based on the results of the autopsy performed by the medical examiner. This is especially true in the UK and Commonwealth Countries. There are several shows on Britbox and Acorn about this. In a lot of places, the coroner (who still makes the final decisions on the cause of death) is also the Chief Medical Examiner.
