Abstract
One hundred thirty years ago, Thomas Armitage (1819–1896) wrote, “The three great branches which man loves to study in himself are his organization, his vital functions, and his moral and intellectual powers.” He specifies, “Anatomy…is a science which has revealed man's body to himself in detail, and therefore always commands his interest” (Armitage 1895).
In this issue of Clinical Anatomy, we offer the reader papers that explore the organization of the human body, including topics such as the tibial collateral ligament and neck of the left atrial appendage. Educational papers include one on practicing dentists' perceptions of what and how dental students are taught gross anatomy. Technical papers that will undoubtedly be of interest include how ChatGPT can be used to create case-based multiple-choice questions for anatomy exams and a systematic review of the roles of Artificial Intelligence in teaching anatomy (Figure 1).
期刊介绍:
Clinical Anatomy is the Official Journal of the American Association of Clinical Anatomists and the British Association of Clinical Anatomists. The goal of Clinical Anatomy is to provide a medium for the exchange of current information between anatomists and clinicians. This journal embraces anatomy in all its aspects as applied to medical practice. Furthermore, the journal assists physicians and other health care providers in keeping abreast of new methodologies for patient management and informs educators of new developments in clinical anatomy and teaching techniques. Clinical Anatomy publishes original and review articles of scientific, clinical, and educational interest. Papers covering the application of anatomic principles to the solution of clinical problems and/or the application of clinical observations to expand anatomic knowledge are welcomed.
