AB  - Cadaveric  dissection  provides  an  unparalleled  education  for  healthcare  providers  of  every  variety.  It  is  important  not  because  it  is  a  means  to  see  anatomical  structures;  atlases,  pictures,  models,  and  technology  can  all  achieve  that  goal,  but  it  is  important  due  to  the  fact  that  it  forces  the  student  to  look  for  and  discover  structures  and  their  related  functions.  These  activities  cannot  easily  be  replaced  by  other  means.  For  this  reason,  dissection  is  best  approached  as  an  exercise  in  exploration  first  and  foremost.  Your  professors,  instructors,  and  assistants  are  guides  on  a  journey  that  you  are  taking,  one  which  ultimately  leads  to  the  health  of  your  future  patients.  In  this  sense,  the  individuals  that  have  donated  their  bodies  to  your  benefit  are  donating,  through  their  death,  better  health  for  others  that  will  come  through  you.  It  is  of  utmost  importance  that  you  respect  this  intention,  and  take  as  full  advantage  of  this  gift  as  possible.  Learning  does  not  happen  by  mistake,  nor  does  it  happen  without  mistakes.  Study  in  advance  of  dissection  so  that  you  can  anticipate  what  you  will  encounter,  but  also  use  this  opportunity  to  make  as  many  well-intentioned  mistakes  as  possible  in  order  to  avoid  making  those  same  mistakes  later  with  living  individuals.  By  the  end  of  your  exploration,  you  should  have  developed  a  kind  of  “X-ray”  vision  for  seeing  the  structures  inside  individuals  based  on  the  visible  external  landmarks.  This  is  the  foundation  of  all  diagnosis.
