Abstract: Objective To evaluate the effect of 3D-multimodality image (3DMMI) reconstruction in orthopedics clinical probation teaching. Methods In February 2017, 90 eight-year program medical students were randomly divided equally into test group that implemented case-based learning (CBL) assisted by 3DMMI and control group that implemented CBL. After class, the in reading pelvic imaging and knowledge of the students in two group were tested. Besides, all 90 students completed questionnaire. Results There were 45 students in each group and their got similar scores in previous clinical course, which imply consistent baseline. Compared with the control group, the students in test group had higher scores for pelvic tumor image reading [(5.69±1.11) vs (6.77±0.93)] and theoretical assessment [(6.46±0.78) vs (7.38±0.87)], all P<0.05; furthermore, they showed higher evaluation and satisfaction to courses and teachers such as the classroom learning interest [(8.46±0.52) vs (7.00±0.58)] and clarity of knowledge teaching [(8.00±0.82) vs (6.77±0.73)], all P<0.05. Conclusions 3DMMI can improve the learning outcomes of clinical medical students, enhance learning interest and improve their learning experience,and then improve the quality of teaching.
