The use of the Anatomage Table for improving forensic odontology education and training - 10/08/22
Highlights |
• | Virtual dissection of skull and jaws could be part of a postgraduate course in forensic odontology. The Anatomage Virtual Dissection table could be a substitute for those institutions that do not have the facilities to support a cadaver program. |
• | The Anatomage Table might represent a turning point in the learning process also of forensic odontology in post-mortem dental data collection, as an onsite as well as remote learning resource, but cannot substitute the need of in-situ cadaver dissection. |
• | This tool describes with accuracy and high resolution, head, skull, jaws and teeth allowing to familiarize with radiological images and collection of dental autoptic parameters |
Abstract |
Human and animal anatomy can benefit from the use the life-sized three-dimensional (3D) images of the Anatomage Table which is an intuitive touchscreen that allows virtual dissection, interactions, and control features, including the turning on and off of selected structures categorized on various cadaver models.
This technical note reports the innovative application of the Anatomage Table in a forensic odontology training program, allowing an accurate and high-resolution study and observation of the head, skull, jaws, and teeth, for the purpose of teaching dental autopsy procedures and standardized collection of dental autoptic parameters, as well as to familiarize with radiological images. Moreover, we propose virtual post-mortem dental data collection as an efficient tool in forensic odontology education and training, as an adjunct onsite as well as remote learning resource.
