African Medical Educators and Anatomy Teachers' Perceptions and Acceptance of the Anatomage Table as an EdTech and Innovation: A Qualitative Study.

African anatomists are generally technology inclined and in favor of EdTech. The most recurring opinion was that the Anatomage Table could only be a "complementary teaching tool to cadavers" and that it "can't replace the real-life experience of cadavers." Particularly, respondents from user institutions opined that it "complements the traditional cadaver-based approaches" to anatomy learning and inquiry, including being a good "complement for cadaveric skill lab" sessions. Compared with the traditional cadaveric dissections a majority also considered it less problematic regarding cultural acceptability and health and safety-related concerns. The lifelikeness of the 3D representation is a major factor that drives acceptability.
