超声检查是一种非侵入性成像手段,现代超声机携带方便、价格低廉(相对于其他成像手段而言),而且用户友好。这项研究的目的是探索学生对使用超声波教授“活体解剖学”的看法。开发了一个利用经胸超声心动图的模块,并在医学、理科和牙科本科生学习心脏解剖学的时候将其作为课程的一部分。在一名学生志愿者身上探索了相关的心脏解剖,并通过AV投影系统将图像实时投射到所有学生。学生们被要求完成一份关于学习经历的问卷,并有机会提供开放的反馈。学生们对这次学习体验的评价非常积极。他们同意或强烈同意这是一种教授解剖学的有效方法(90%医学;77%牙科;100%科学),并且它被纳入的方式促进了讲座材料的强化(83%医学;76%牙科;100%科学)。他们同意或强烈同意这样的说法,即这种体验是创新的(93%是医学的;92%是牙科的;100%是科学的),并激发了人们对主题的兴趣(86%的医学;75%的牙科;96%的科学),他们希望看到更多的单元,探索其他解剖学站点,纳入课程(83%的医学;72%的牙科;100%的科学)。我们相信,与传统的教学方法相结合,超声可以成为一种有用的工具,以加强各种不同本科生群体的解剖学学习。阿纳特科学教育3:318-322。(C)2010年美国解剖学家协会。
Ultrasonography is a noninvasive imaging modality, and modern ultrasound machines are portable, inexpensive (relative to other imaging modalities), and user friendly. The aim of this study was to explore student perceptions of the use of ultrasound to teach "living anatomy''. A module utilizing transthoracic echocardiography was developed and presented to undergraduate medical, science, and dental students at a time they were learning cardiac anatomy as part of their curriculum. Relevant cardiac anatomy was explored on a student volunteer and images were projected in real-time to all students via an AV projection system. Students were asked to complete a questionnaire about the learning experience and were given the opportunity to provide open feedback. The students' evaluations of this learning experience were very positive. They agreed or strongly agreed that it was an effective way to teach anatomy (90% medical; 77% dental; 100% science) and that it was incorporated in a way that promoted reinforcement of the lecture material (83% medical; 76% dental; 100% science). They agreed or strongly agreed with statements that the experience was innovative (93% medical; 92% dental; 100% science) and stimulated interest in the subject matter (86% medical; 75% dental; 96% science), and that they would like to see more modules, exploring other anatomical sites, incorporated into the curricula (83% medical; 72% dental; 100% science). We believe that ultrasound could be a useful tool, in conjunction with traditional teaching methods, to reinforce the learning of anatomy of a variety of different undergraduate student groups.
