Abstract
The authors describe a new teaching method for first-year medical students, involving preparation and use of cadaver radiographs in the gross anatomy laboratory. A standard series of radiographs of each cadaver was obtained prior to dissection and provided to each group of students. This technique offers a unique opportunity for radiographic/anatomical/pathological correlation, facilitates an understanding of complex anatomical relationships, and illustrates the application of anatomical knowledge to clinical practice. It can also generate intense student enthusiasm and improve student-faculty communication and teaching relationships.
