Abstract

COVID-19 caused interruptions to the anatomy curricula in medical schools worldwide. During the pandemic, the Anatomy Department of the School of Medical Sciences at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) conducted online anatomy practical sessions using two-dimensional atlas images and pre-recorded demonstration videos, which were shown live during synchronous learning or embedded into our learning management system for students to learn asynchronously. Some lecturers experienced logistical and technical difficulties during the online practical sessions, which necessitated rescheduling. Given the limited online resources, the School of Medical Sciences, USM purchased the Complete Anatomy application (3D4Medical, Ireland)—a 3D anatomy atlas application—to increase the effectiveness of the online practical session. This article presents the basic features and benefits of using the Complete Anatomy application for practical sessions. We further share our insights regarding the use of virtual technology in teaching so that other institutions may learn from our experiences.

在COVID-19大流行期间使用虚拟三维解剖应用程序的解剖学实践课程

COVID-19导致世界各地医学院的解剖学课程中断。在疫情期间，马来西亚理科大学(USM)医学院解剖系利用二维地图集图像和预先录制的演示视频开展了在线解剖实践课程，这些视频在同步学习期间现场播放，或嵌入我们的学习管理系统，供学生异步学习。一些讲师在网上实践课程中遇到了后勤和技术上的困难，需要重新安排时间。鉴于有限的在线资源，USM医学科学学院购买了完整解剖应用程序(3D4Medical, Ireland) - 3D解剖图谱应用程序，以提高在线实践会话的有效性。本文介绍了在实际会话中使用Complete Anatomy应用程序的基本特性和好处。我们进一步分享我们在教学中使用虚拟科技的见解，让其他院校可以学习我们的经验。
