A key component of medical education is the teaching of human anatomy, which gives students a fundamental grasp of the composition and operation of the human body. The main way of teaching anatomy in the past has been through cadaver dissection, however this method is become harder to use because of logistical, financial, and ethical issues. These issues have been made even more difficult by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has compelled many anatomy labs and medical schools to cease corpse dissection due to safety worries and limitations on in-person gatherings. The utilization of virtual dissection tables, 3D models, and simulation technology are a few alternatives to the traditional ways of teaching anatomy that are becoming more and more popular as a result. These methods are more cost-effective, more accessible, and better able to model a wide range of anatomical variances and diseases than traditional cadaver dissection. With an emphasis on the difficulties presented by the COVID-19 epidemic and the utilization of alternate methods for teaching human anatomy, this study seeks to provide an assessment of the current situation of anatomy education in India in 2020. We examine the advantages and drawbacks of these different approaches through a review of the literature, as well as their potential to influence how anatomy is taught in medical colleges all throughout India. The effectiveness of these alternate approaches to teaching anatomy, such as virtual dissection tables, 3D models, and simulation technology, has been supported by numerous research, which we found. These strategies do have some limits, though, and cadaver dissection is still the principal way that many academic institutions and instructors teach anatomy. In conclusion, this research emphasizes the necessity of an innovative and diverse approach to anatomy instruction in India, especially in view of the difficulties brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. We come to the conclusion that the use of alternative anatomy teaching techniques has the potential to raise the caliber and accessibility of anatomy instruction in India while simultaneously addressing some of the problems associated with conventional cadaver dissection.
