Medical education

Advanced surgical training

Use patient-specific imaging and dissection anatomy to explain surgical regions and approaches in training. Teach in groups and record demonstrations for revision.

How it works

Study the anatomy.
Explain the approach.

Medical Imaging lets instructors explore CT and MRI data in 3D to discuss anatomical features relevant to a training exercise.

Choose the teaching caseImport the dataset and select the structures and views relevant to the learning objective.
Explain the anatomyRotate, slice, and isolate structures to show their relationships and discuss an approach as an educational exercise.
Debrief and repeatReturn to the anatomical material after practical training and record the explanation for later study.

In your curriculum

Add anatomical context
to practical training.

Use 3D material alongside physical simulation and supervised teaching to explain the anatomy behind an exercise.

Patient-specific anatomy

Study the anatomical features shown in a selected case. Connect imaging views with the structures discussed during training.

Team communication

Ask learners to explain landmarks and relationships to one another, using the same visual reference during discussion.

Explain anatomy before a practical exercise

Surgical training combines anatomical knowledge with supervised practical instruction. Patient-specific imaging can provide a visual reference for the region covered in an exercise. The instructor can establish orientation, identify landmarks, and explain the relationships illustrated by the selected dataset.

A teaching case should have a defined anatomical objective. Prepared views can introduce the region as a whole before the session concentrates on a smaller set of structures. Interactive exploration allows the instructor to respond to questions while retaining the sequence of the explanation.

Human dissections and anatomical atlases can add context when learners need to revisit general or layered anatomy. These resources serve a different purpose from the selected imaging dataset. Keeping the distinction explicit allows the instructor to connect the material without suggesting that every reference represents the same anatomy.

Carry the reference into debriefing and revision

After practical training, the group can return to the same anatomical material. Participants can explain landmarks, revisit relationships that were difficult to orient, and discuss the views used during the introduction. This connects the visual preparation with the subsequent educational discussion.

Shared sessions can support instructors and trainees working in one room or from different locations. Learners can describe the structures they mean using the common reference. Teacher mode allows the instructor to manage interaction while maintaining the focus of the explanation.

Recordings can preserve anatomical demonstrations for preparation and revision. A useful walkthrough addresses one region or teaching objective and includes the view sequence and narration. It complements supervised practical work rather than attempt to reproduce the full exercise.
