Outline of Final Research Achievements	The purpose of this study was to develop an educational system to learn new advanced medical techniques for medical students and to examine the usefulness of clinical anatomy practice consisting of simulated surgery using donated cadavers. The contents of the research were a questionnaire survey of medical students and academics, and a pilot study of simulated endoscopic surgery. The simulated surgery consisted of surgical lectures, demonstrations by surgeons, and hands-on or observational practice by students. These studies showed that both conventional systematic anatomy and newly developed clinical anatomy were useful. It is desirable to introduce clinical anatomy as part of the clinical training curriculum other than conventional anatomy.
