In medical education, the choice of teaching tools directly affects students' learning efficiency and clinical skills. Typical spinal lesion model, as a kind of teaching equipment to reproduce the structure and pathological characteristics of the spine, is gradually becoming an important auxiliary tool for medical students to learn spinal diseases. So does it have the potential to become a key tool in medical teaching?

Core features of the model

Typical spinal lesion Model

The typical spinal lesion model is based on accurate anatomical design and highly reductive pathological manifestations to help students intuitively understand the spinal structure and its common lesions, such as disc herniation, scoliosis, bone hyperplasia, etc. These models are often made of high-strength materials, durable and easy to reuse, and are clearly labeled for in-depth learning in conjunction with explanatory content.

Data supported teaching effectiveness

A human skeleton model

A medical education study showed that teaching anatomy and pathology using simulation models increased students' mastery of knowledge by 25% (Smith et al., 2022). Compared with the traditional atlas and text explanation, the diorama provides a dynamic and interactive learning experience where students can deepen their understanding of spinal function and pathological processes through manual manipulation. Especially for complex lesions, the three-dimensional display of the model is more helpful for students to combine theoretical knowledge with practical clinical manifestations.

Practical help for medical students

Learning the diagnosis and treatment of spinal disorders is especially important for medical students, and mastering these skills requires a solid foundation in anatomy and pathology. The spinal typical lesion model provides a low-risk practice environment that enables students to fully familiarize themselves with the characteristics of vertebrae-related lesions and their management before exposure to real patients. For example, understanding the mechanism of nerve compression caused by disc herniation through models can help students grasp diagnostic ideas more accurately.

The future development and application of the model

Although typical spinal lesion models show significant advantages in teaching, it is still necessary to combine virtual reality (VR) technology in the future to further improve the simulation effect. This will help
