Educational institutions in Turkey are increasingly integrating digital technologies into anatomy training. Aydın Adnan Menderes University launched DijiLab, a specialized facility within its Veterinary Faculty that utilizes virtual reality, 3D modeling, and computed tomography data to allow students to examine anatomical systems of various animals.

Similarly, at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University, medical faculty leadership has highlighted the role of artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and virtual dissection in making anatomy education more interactive and personalized. While emphasizing these digital advancements, educators maintain that such tools are intended to complement, rather than replace, traditional methods and the study of the actual human body.
