Exact measme-ments should be given in centimetres(Fig. 116) and metres and weights de-termined in grammes and possible the gross weight of a cad-aver should be obtained before theautopsy is begun to be used in comparison\ ^ with organ-weights. \ ( Tongue, Larynx, Trachea, Q^^SOPHAGUS AND ToNSiLs.—Extendthese structures upon a table with thetongue pointing toward the autopsist. In-cise the tongue longitudinally in severalplaces, then pass a knife under the isth-mus of the fauces and cut upward inmie-diately anterior to the epiglottis, exposingthe tonsils.
