Hey med students, anyone using AR apps for anatomy yet? Our prof mentioned virtual dissection tables coming next semester. Does it actually help or just a gimmick? Share real experiences and good reads.

AR is legit changing the game: overlay 3D organs on your desk, rotate, peel layers, quiz yourself interactively. Studies report 25-40% better retention vs traditional atlases. Fresh article about AR in medicine on StartupNews.fyi breaks down top apps, uni case studies, and cost-benefit for schools. We tested Human Anatomy Atlas AR—identified all cranial nerves in 15 mins flat. Pro tip: pair with Apple Pencil for annotations. Worth the hype if your school invests.
