Abstract
In addition to lectures and the dissection course, four supplements are described to stimulate first-year medical students to learn gross anatomy. All topics are coordinated with the dissection course. The additional options are living anatomy, X-ray anatomy by a roentgenologist, presentation of patients by clinicians, and films on clinical problems. This integrated curriculum of basic and applied anatomy generates a high level of student interest in gross anatomy.
