TL;DR
The use of one resource in particular, the VH Dissector, Pro edition (VHD), is explored and an interactive and lively anatomy teaching session is developed which delivers some powerful learning opportunities for both students and staff.
Abstract
We have developed an interactive and lively anatomy teaching session Early mastery of these skills is important for undergraduates A valuable emotional impact is achieved It is best to have several students involved as life models Novice students often struggle to interpret anatomical information We have found it is best to allow the students to identify the target structure first VHD can go some way towards bridging the gap between novice and expert

The SurgeonAnatomy: A must for teaching the next generation
536 Citations2004Jules Older
The traditional anatomy education based on topographical structural anatomy taught by didactic lectures and complete dissection of the body with personal tuition, has been replaced by a multiple range of special study modules, problem-based workshops, computers, plastic models and many other teaching tools.
