Abstract
Digital pathology plays a crucial role in teaching and education in rural settings by overcoming the challenges associated with limited resources and access to expertise. We conducted a study where a structured questionnaire was given to 2nd year MBBS students. To assess awareness, knowledge and perception about Digital Pathology amongst 2nd year MBBS students. The present study is a cross sectional study conducted at a rural based tertiary care medical college in Northern India. The participants in the study were 2nd year MBBS students who were given a questionnaire via a goggle form link. The goggle form was sent to them via social media app. Questionnaires were administered to 2nd year MBBS batch of 150 students studying Pathology. A total of 138 students responded to the questionnaire and the response rate was 92%.Our study showed that majority of students perceive that if traditional methods of learning are combined with digital Pathology related medium, students will be able to grasp the subject in a holistic manner. Overall once incorporated in teaching undergraduates in medical curriculum, digital pathology will enrich medical education by providing a flexible, interactive and accessible learning environment.
