“…[17][18][19] Although recent research has demonstrated that both approaches contribute to anatomical learning, individual and group dissections can offer unique educational benefits for anatomical and educational outcomes by providing medical students with improved anatomical knowledge, understanding of anatomical relationships, and clarification of difficult anatomical concepts. [17][18][19][20][21][22] However, medical students have described a range of emotions (e.g., anxiety, fear, excitement) in anticipation of anatomy lab experiences. 23,24 Upon completion of their anatomy lab experiences, students can have overwhelming positive experiences, including a sense of accomplishment.…”

“…Despite existing evidence that student dissection affords little if any advantage over study from prosected specimens (Wisco et al, 2015;Aziz et al, 2019;Lackey-Cornelison, 2020) or technologically derived models (Fasel et al, 2016;McMillan et al, 2020;Frithioff et al, 2021), the act of dissection especially for novice first-year medical or other health professions students continues to hold a highly acclaimed position in the teaching and learning of anatomy (McMenamin et al, 2018;Wilson et al, 2019;Basavanna et al, 2022). Its claim, built solely on perceptions of students and teaching faculty appears to be marked by consistent indications of student anxiety, discomfort, and lack of confidence in their ability to meet expectations of high-quality outcomes.…”

“…Cadaveric prosections are employed in the teaching and learning of anatomy and can be defined as cadaveric specimens that an anatomist has dissected to demonstrate specific anatomical structures for students (Aziz et al, 2020). Some institutions utilize formalin-fixed prosected specimens to augment the experience of educational dissection, while others rely on prosected specimens to replace student-led dissection.…”
