Abstract

Introduction: Anatomy museum specimens are used as a visual undergraduate and postgraduate teaching aids, which are gradually replacing cadaveric teaching. Among this, neuroanatomy specimens are delicate and utmost care is required to handle them and are also difficult to obtain. This necessitates the requirement of robust neuroanatomy specimen preparation and preservation for teaching medical students. Material and Methods: The neuroanatomy specimens were collected after careful dissection from the cadavers using standard dissection methods. After thorough washing, the specimens were placed in 10% formalin solution for fixation. After fixation the specimens were mounted, placed in the acrylic boxes and displayed for teaching and learning in the anatomy museum. Results and Conclusion: The specimens resulted in better understanding of anatomical details and relations of structures. Neatly dissected, carefully preserved specimens of various sections of the brain are useful for teaching and research purposes.
