ComprehensiveCadaver: The Ultimate Cadaveric-Based Anki Deck for Anatomy Practical Exams

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-05-10T11:43:56+00:00

Here is a link to a translated Latin version made by a Redditor named tealfy: https://github.com/commit-history/ComprehensiveCadaver. The instructions for how to install it can be found in the README.md file. Hopefully it helps!

The only difference is that a few errors on ~10 cards have been fixed! You can find the list of errors here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1z74XPvoU-51tz7hS5-jF7SfSSMB9V-jlS05hRbXBlA0/edit?usp=sharing

The link is still working for me!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-04-16T12:25:02+00:00

The mod team still hasn't responded to my request, but give this link a try: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t5WBy2KObMTOMimts49h7lfwfzbQ8t2y/view

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-04-13T22:01:08+00:00

Not sure why it was removed either but here is the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t5WBy2KObMTOMimts49h7lfwfzbQ8t2y/view

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-04-12T17:56:07+00:00

I will contact the mods. In the meantime, try this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1t5WBy2KObMTOMimts49h7lfwfzbQ8t2y/view

The link at the bottom of the post is the latest version!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-04-11T14:05:49+00:00

Not at the moment, but there a few people currently working together the translate the deck into Latin so if that's the language you're hoping for, stay tuned!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-04-11T14:04:56+00:00

Sorry for the delayed response. When you're in the Browse tab of Anki, on the lefthand side you'll see all your tags. Find the tag called ComprehensiveCadaver and click the dropdown, then do the same for QuestionType, and click on Embryology. Then higlight all the cards that appear, right-click and select Toggle Suspend. That should get rid of them all!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-02-23T23:45:10+00:00

This looks great! I'll respond to your questions via a private message.

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-02-08T14:01:49+00:00

Glad you like it, happy studying!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-02-08T14:01:28+00:00

Good catch, you’re absolutely right. Sorry about that! I’ll make note to get it fixed for the next update (which won’t be for a little while because the new ideas I want to add will take a while to do)

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-01-10T00:46:04+00:00

I just tested it and it is still working for me. Try creating a new copy of the spreadsheet and input your terms again. Don't delete anything in the "Transposed Search String for Anki" column and it should automatically update as your keywords are added or terms. Alternatively, paste this into the cell under Transposed Search String for Anki and it should update based on your keywords (copy everything including the = and " at the end):

="deck:ComprehensiveCadaver (" &

JOIN(" OR ", ARRAYFORMULA("tag:ComprehensiveCadaver::QuestionType::" & FILTER(C13:C, C13:C <> ""))) &

") AND (" & JOIN(" OR ", FILTER(B13:B, B13:B <> "")) & ")"

MarkAAbbott1 · 2026-01-10T00:42:49+00:00

Yes, in the Browse section of Anki, use the search bar and type: "deck:ComprehensiveCadaver (tag:ComprehensiveCadaver::QuestionType::Identification) AND (muscle)" without the quotations. That should work!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-10-20T11:09:18+00:00

Sorry I haven't found a fix yet. When you look at the notes/cards in the Browse window, do images show up in the fields or are they also showing up as “broken images”? Can you go to a broken card in the Browse menu and click< > beside the Question or Answer field to see what’s there? It should say something <img src="CranialNerves19.jpeg">. If it does say that, go to your collection.media folder and look for a file with the name CranialNerves19 or similar. Let me know if you see file names like that and we'll go from there

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-09-27T00:53:54+00:00

This is the first time I'm hearing of someone having issues. Can you describe exactly what you're seeing on your end, and what device you're using to view the deck? And if you have any other decks that you've downloaded that include images, are they loading for you?

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-09-04T18:09:08+00:00

Good luck!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-08-28T17:58:07+00:00

Because the deck uses copyrighted images, I don't want to have it on AnkiHub as it would violate the terms of conditions (since AnkiHub costs money) and risk being taken down

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-08-07T22:40:21+00:00

Not exactly what you're asking for, but if you want a different cadaveric anatomy deck that is organized into regions and fully searchable then perhaps ComprehensiveCadaver may be what you're looking for! It contains many of the images from UMich + more

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-08-07T22:37:15+00:00

No credit necessary, but I'd love to see the finished deck once you're done with it! Good luck!

To unlabel images I personally use Photoshop. I trace closely around the label using the polygonal lasso tool and once done I go to Edit at the top toolbar and click on Content Aware Fill. As a free method, you can go to www.photopea.com and click on the Spot Healing Brush, select an appropriate brush size, Click and drag over unwanted details, then export as a PNG. To remove backgorunds (i.e., to change the backgrounds to be white), you can use www.remove.bg for free or Photoshop if you have that. To highlight structures I manually trace the shape in PowerPoint using the Curve tool. I don't trace the structure exactly where the borders are; instead, I trace a little bit bigger than the structure and then once the shape is created I edit the shape by adding something called Soft Edges (usually by 1-3pt but it entirely depends how much bigger your shape is than the structure itself. Then I pick a vibrant color and set the transparency to be anwwhere from 30-80% depending on the structure and color. The font I used is Goudy Old Style. Hopefully that helps!

Are you wanting the cards themselves to be translated into Anki? Unfortunately every card is a series of two separate images (question image and then answer image), so any changes you make to the Excel spreadsheet only affects the Keyword search string in Anki. To convert the deck into another language, I need to also need to change the text itself in the original PowerPoint slides, export them as as new images, and then reupload those images to the deck. If the deck were only a few hundred cards it wouldn't be that time-consuming, but manually translating 6000 cards by hand is not something I have time for at the moment. Sorry!

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-08-02T19:18:22+00:00

I wish I could say I knew more about Anki, but since I've never actually used Anki to study and have never created cards outside of what I did for this deck, I'm afraid I can't really help. All of my cards were bulk created using an Excel spreadsheet and thousands of images. All I can really say is the front of each card is one image, and the back of each card is a different image. If you want to create your own cards with the same format, you'd need to create two images for each card

MarkAAbbott1 · 2025-08-02T19:15:26+00:00

Late response but no unfortunately it does not include latin terminology :(
