Abstract

Introduction: Radiology is taught less. Knowledge in Radiology and acquiring basic Radiological skills of interpretation are important in development of a medical graduate. This would add to the overall clinical acumen of a basic medical graduate and improve his interest in basic subjects study. Methodology: The Study was conducted on students of SKIMS Medical College in the Department of Anatomy. This was done as a sequential event. Study Population was the First MBBS Students of the same Medical College. Objective: To Check the Response of Medical Undergraduates to Combined Integrative Teaching Methodology. Results: The integration of Radiology with Anatomy was appreciated by a majority (77 %) of students. It was to the liking of most students (73%).It was found to generate interest in majority of the students (73%).Most students found it interesting to be taught this way (74%). Significant and statistically well-judged results were obtained. Conclusion: Combining Radiology with Anatomy and interpreting radiographic procedures should be started in the studies of First MBBS and a more clinically oriented teaching strategy should be placed. The concept needs to be introduced at an early stage in medical curriculum. This concept has potential benefits for the students.
