The tool includes an atlas, videos, courses, and other learning materials.
– For the time being, students will have access for self-study, but we are looking at possibly using the tool during class time from next year," says Sara Regnér, Programme Director for the Medical programme.
– The tool allows students to visualize the body and thus understand spatial relationships in the body by twisting and turning the body in 3D, peeling off and on layers (muscles, nerves, organs) and cutting the body.
The tool is intuitive, according to Sara Regnér, and no training is needed to start using it. It is a tool that can be good to go back to even when you are studying other courses and need to repeat the anatomy to increase your understanding in clinical reasoning. It is also a resource that contains many user-friendly modules so you can easily use it when you have a few minutes to spare.
Four advantages
The choice fell on Complete Anatomy because the tool, compared to the alternatives, has four advantages:
– Better detail, more information about each anatomical structure in text boxes, more interactive solutions such as built-in quizzes, the opportunity to make your own quizzes, the opportunity to create digital lessons that are easily shared between teachers, direct links to course literature via Elsevier Clinical Key.
