Abstract:
Digital technologies are now widely embedded in anatomy education. This viewpoint discusses a potential "digital gap" in anatomy education that extends beyond the availability of technology but is shaped by disparities in perceptions, proficiency, confidence, and access among learners, educators, and institutions. We argue that addressing the digital gap is essential if digital anatomy is to move beyond symbolic innovation and realize its transformative potential in modern anatomy education.
