Abstract

It was our pleasure to read Bernard et al.'s [[1]] paper which investigated the value of stereoscopic three-dimensional (3D) digital models in anatomy education. The paper of de Faria et al. [[4]] comprised 84 graduate medical students, divided into 3 groups: the first one received neuroanatomy teaching via conventional lectures and 2D images, the second via non-stereoscopic 3D models and the third via stereoscopic ones. Bernard et al. [[1]] concluded that stereoscopic 3D models led to better students' academic performance compared to 2D images and that stereoscopy supports anatomy education.
