Alex Morichon; Guillaume Dannhoff; Laurent Barantin; Christophe Destrieux; Igor Lima Maldonado – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
Traditional teaching methods struggle to convey three-dimensional concepts effectively. While 3D virtual models and virtual reality platforms offer a promising approach to teaching anatomy, their cost and specialized equipment pose limitations, especially in disadvantaged areas. A simpler alternative is to use virtual 3D models displayed on…

Nicolas Van Vlasselaer; Benyameen Keelson; Aldo Scafoglieri; Erik Cattrysse – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2024
In anatomical research and education, three-dimensional visualization of anatomical structures is crucial for understanding spatial relationships in diagnostics, surgical planning, and teaching. While computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offer valuable insights, they are often expensive and require specialized resources.…

Young, Julia C.; Quayle, Michelle R.; Adams, Justin W.; Bertram, John F.; McMenamin, Paul G. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2019
The practical aspect of human developmental biology education is often limited to the observation and use of animal models to illustrate developmental anatomy. This is due in part to the difficulty of accessing human embryonic and fetal specimens, and the sensitivity inherent to presenting these specimens as teaching materials. This report…

Bogomolova, Katerina; van der Ham, Ineke J. M.; Dankbaar, Mary E. W.; van den Broek, Walter W.; Hovius, Steven E. R.; van der Hage, Jos A.; Hierck, Beerend P. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2020
Monoscopically projected three-dimensional (3D) visualization technology may have significant disadvantages for students with lower visual-spatial abilities despite its overall effectiveness in teaching anatomy. Previous research suggests that stereopsis may facilitate a better comprehension of anatomical knowledge. This study evaluated the…

Fernandes, Jacks; Teles, Ariel; Teixeira, Silmar – Education Sciences, 2020
Health education is one of the knowledge areas in which augmented reality (AR) technology is widespread, and it has been considered as a facilitator of the learning process. In literature, there are still few studies detailing the role of mobile AR in neuroanatomy. Specifically, for the spinal cord, the teaching-learning process may be hindered…

Cui, Dongmei; Lynch, James C.; Smith, Andrew D.; Wilson, Timothy D.; Lehman, Michael N. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2016
Computer-assisted 3D models are used in some medical and allied health science schools; however, they are often limited to online use and 2D flat screen-based imaging. Few schools take advantage of 3D stereoscopic learning tools in anatomy education and clinically relevant anatomical variations when teaching anatomy. A new approach to teaching…

Gnidovec, Tanja; Žemlja, Mojca; Dolenec, Andreja; Torkar, Gregor – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2020
Learning the basics of human anatomy is challenging for schoolchildren due to its three-dimensional nature and complexity as a system. This study created educational materials for learning about and teaching the human circulatory system based on augmented reality (AR) technology and a structure-behavior-function (SBF) model, including 2D/3D…

Cui, Dongmei; Wilson, Timothy D.; Rockhold, Robin W.; Lehman, Michael N.; Lynch, James C. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2017
The head and neck region is one of the most complex areas featured in the medical gross anatomy curriculum. The effectiveness of using three-dimensional (3D) models to teach anatomy is a topic of much discussion in medical education research. However, the use of 3D stereoscopic models of the head and neck circulation in anatomy education has not…

Puzziferro, Maria; McGee, Elisabeth – Online Journal of Distance Learning Administration, 2021
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unprecedented shift in how health science education is delivered (Sandars et al., 2020). With face-to-face learning, such as lab and classroom interactions, largely unavailable during the pandemic, institutions have been required to quickly shift the learning environment to a fully virtual format. While…

Danforth, Douglas R. – International Journal of Virtual and Personal Learning Environments, 2010
One of the strengths of a virtual environment is the ability to immerse the occupant into an environment that would otherwise be impossible. The primary focus of the author's project in Second Life is to take advantage of this opportunity to explore novel approaches to medical education. Second Life can be used to model doctor-patient interaction,…
