Virtual autopsies are the wave of the future in forensic medicine, using three-dimensional x-ray techniques instead of hacking through a mess of blood and guts. The Virtual Autopsy Table allows the cause of death to be determined quickly to aid in criminal investigations. Amazing - straight out of Bones or CSI.

If you prefer the blood and guts method over advanced technology, here's a great autopsy how-to and lots of educational dissection and human anatomy tutorials.
