After the post mortem examination the Pathologist will send a report to the Coroner. The report will give details of the examination, of any tissues and organs retained, and any tests, such as for drugs and blood alcohol level, which have been carried out to help in finding out the cause of death.
Sometimes the Pathologist's report may not be available for several weeks because of the complexity of the examination (especially if there has been a forensic examination, organs need very specialist examination, or the examination has been carried out on an infant).
You may ask for a copy of the Pathologist's report.
