Dissection is a term derived from Latin, meaning the act of cutting open the body of a dead animal or plant to study its anatomical structure. It differs from autopsy, which is used in pathology and forensic medicine to determine the cause of death in humans. Dissection is essential for exposing parts of the human body for the purpose of student learning. Proper dissection can help reduce errors and optimize the use of a cadaver. This is particularly important during times of cadaver shortages faced by medical educational institutions nationwide.
Our department has many trained personnel capable of completing dissections of body parts or even the entire body within the specified time frame. The results of the dissection are not only used for wet specimens (preserved in formalin solution), but can also be used for plastination purposes.
