Abstract:
In a preceding study, we had reviewed and evaluated the anatomy sites available on the Internet. The evolution of the available sites, the disappearance of certain sites and the appearance of new sites led us to update this list. In addition, the German-speaking sites were included in the study, which previously included only the Anglophone and French-speaking sites. Forty-eight sites were indexed and their addresses are available on the site of the Laboratory of Anatomy of the Faculty of Medicine Lyon-Nord (http://rockefeller.univ-lyon1.fr/Anatomie-Lyon- Nord). Compared to the scores allotted in 1998, we noted in 1999 a significant increase (p = 0.03) in the total score (12.13 +/- 2.98 vs. 11.23 +/- 2.28/20), which shows that the quality of the anatomic sites available on the Internet has improved.
