How do we teach anatomy

: Two approaches to anatomy teaching have been studied and compared. We have concentrated on the teaching time spent for all parts of anatomy and we have compared external recommendations with the teaching time actually given to the subject at our Faculty of Medicine. In addition to that, various opinions on informational and educational aims in medical anatomy teaching are presented. The comparison mentioned above can be used to select the most useful way in which anatomy may be taught, in the light of current curricular emphases and pressures, and in the context of sound educational principles.
