The potential of medical comics to teach palliative care skills: a cross-sectional study of 668 medical students.

After a single lecture on graphic medicine, the students were positive about using MC for teaching PC skills. Since the lecture was short and the majority of the medical students stated that they had not been previously exposed to the field of MC, this study demonstrates that it is promising to further use and evaluate a set of visual and narrative illustrations as a teaching method in PC.
