BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Nuclear medicine specialty based on the imaging of various organ functions has progressed in recent years with the improvement of imaging techniques towards hybrid imaging requiring knowledge of cross sectional anatomy. On the other hand, with the passing of time, most of knowledge of anatomy has been forgotten.
METHODS: This study was conducted in an experimental study. Anatomy was first taught by the faculty members of the Anatomy School of Medicine, with an emphasis on cross sectional anatomy, followed by teaching of cross-sectional anatomy of CT scan by nuclear medicine assistant professors. At the end of the year, a questionnaire evaluated the level of satisfaction of the assistants from different methods (including rotational radiology course, anatomical classes and CT classes), the viewpoints of the professors regarding the change of attitude and promotion of the assistants, and finally the results of the assistants in the recent courses of the board.
FINDINGS: Of the 16 nuclear medicine assistants, 15 (93.75%) were satisfied with the method. 14 (87.5%) believed that conducting anatomical classes would help to better understanding of CT scan sections. Also, 100% of the assistants stated that they had more confidence in the interpretation of CT stereotypes after the introduction of new CT courses. The survey of faculty members and the positive results of the test board emphasized the positive effect of the training.
CONCLUSION: Simultaneous training of anatomy and cross sectional anatomy can improve the learning of cross-sectional anatomy of CT scan.
