Corrosion Casting, a Known Technique for the Study and Teaching of Vascular and Duct Structure in Anatomy
Teaching and learning anatomy, as a process, has changed. Fresh cadavers were once used as a tool for the student to approach the human body in order to overcome theoretical knowledge and gain applied expertise. Today, techniques such as corrosion casting are known to be a more effective way of achi...
