Cadaveric study

A cadaveric study involves examining human bodies that have been donated for scientific and medical research. These studies are used by healthcare professionals and researchers to understand anatomy, practice surgical techniques, and improve medical procedures without risk to live patients. They provide valuable insights into the human body’s structure and function, helping to advance medical knowledge and education. Conducted with respect and ethical considerations, cadaveric studies are essential for training future medical practitioners and for testing new treatments or devices in a realistic, human context.
