Abstract

Medical education (ME) continues to evolve in modern times but has roots in ancient traditions. With a need to incorporate updated, newer technologies, ME enables us to prepare future physicians and surgeons. Pregraduate and postgraduate ME paradigms and their time-tested curricula are constantly being upgraded with vertical and horizontal integration in the knowledge of medical sciences, along with inevitable medical research. There are constantly growing many diverse branches of medical sciences, which are essential for providing comprehensive, specialized, and patient-centered healthcare treatments, staying well-informed of medical advancements, and addressing the varied health challenges of modern medicine. Integrating modern medical diagnostic tools is fundamental to improving patient outcomes, enhancing the precision of medical interventions, and advancing our understanding of various health conditions rather than simply treating diseases.
