Introduction
As we all know, that anatomy is one of the historical subject and is still continuously being taught on due to its importance. The study itself begins as early as 1600 BC, with the emerging of Edwin Smith Surgical Papyrus. The study during this era is mostly description on some parts of the human body. During the time of Aristotle, dissection was implemented on animal and this leads to founding of comparative anatomy subject.
It was not until during the reign of King Ptolemy that dissection on human was implemented. Live cadaveric dissection of Alexandrian criminal was allowed under the Ptolemic dysnasty and the man responsible for it was Herophilos. Galen in the 2nd century was also one of the prominent anatomists. A physician …show more content…
Wilhelm Rontgen has marked an important milestone in the field of anatomy, by taking the first Rontgenograms of his wife’s hand. In short, his finding enables the study of human to a certain extent without having to do dissection.
When someone sees a GP for example, the doctor will as part of his whole assessment, ask few questions to the patient, proceed then with physical examination. He will then move on next with investigation to aid and confirms his diagnosis and summary of the patient. Imaging is not only part of the investigation but also for the management of the patient. How doctor manages patient depicts the clinical scenario.
It is logical that the medical curricular ought to be teaching imaging during students’ basic science years. In order to simulate a very relevant clinical experience throughout a medical course, one medical school has integrated the modality of imaging in their anatomy teaching module(McLachlan, 2004). Students had session with clinical radiologists who will expose them on X-rays, Ultrasound, MRIs, CT, and 3D imaging. The 3D imaging is still new in the field and still developing. Raw data are obtained from CT or MRI images, and these are then sent for filtration to remove unwanted structure via software such as AMIRA or 3D slicer. The resulting 3D generated structure can be viewed or further edited to form animation or integrate it in an application which can be computer or web based. One of the main example is the 3D rendered structure from imaging is the Visible Human
