Anatomy is a foundational science mainstay of undergraduate medical school education, particularly in the pre-clerkship curriculum. During the post-clerkship curriculum, students closer to graduate medical education may benefit from a focused concentration on human anatomy related to their specific clinical interests. Here, we describe a course for post-clerkship students that uniquely incorporates a multimodal approach of dissection, didactics, and clinical correlation to radiologic imaging, with the opportunity to personalize student learning on a specialty-specific anatomic region. The course increased students’ confidence of anatomical knowledge and its clinical relevance. Other institutions may benefit from establishing a similar multimodal integrated post-clerkship anatomy curriculum.
