Abstract

Human anatomy has been regarded as the keystone of medical knowledge for centuries. Cadaver dissection is the prevailing pedagogy adopted in most medical schools for anatomy learning. However, with the rise of new computer technology, radiology and digital medical images provide an alternative perspective to approach human anatomy. Hence, "Can traditional cadaver dissection be replaced by new computer-based anatomy teaching?" must be inquired. Here, we also try to explore the role of virtual reality in anatomy teaching. This study reviews and analyzes the current literatures in terms of anatomy education worldwide. We aim to look into the challenges most medical students confront in learning anatomy, and further provide a valid teaching strategy to diminish the current gap in between basic and clinical anatomy
