This systematic review aimed to synthesize the literature on how ultrasound is currently used in anatomy education within medical schools. A systematic search of Ovid MEDLINE, Scopus, and Educational Resources Information Centre was conducted. Thirty-four relevant unique articles were included from the 1,272 identified from the databases and analyzed via narrative synthesis. Thematic analysis generated two domain summaries: "Successful Aspects of Ultrasound Teaching" and "Barriers to Implementation," each with additional subthemes, aimed to help educators inform best teaching practices from the current evidence base in this field.
