All rights reserved.The teaching of medicine has historically been linked to the use of cadaveric models to understand the anatomy of the human body; however, as awareness of the ethical dimension of using cadaveric models for teaching purposes has increased, the creation of alternative teaching strategies has been encouraged. The incorporation of educational technology for medical education also represents a cost-efficient alternative that allows for the expansion of the experience so that a more significant number of students can benefit from it, also to successfully replicate the practice to reach the competencies. This study reports the implementation experience in a Mexican university using SECTRA Workstation IDS7 technology for the teaching of the Human Anatomy course. In this project, the sample consisted of 450 undergraduate students participating in the medical program, 50% of the participants had an internship with educational technology, and the remaining 50% received a course in traditional anatomy. The results show a significant difference (9.3%) since the approval percentage of the groups that participated in the experience was higher.
