Abstract: Anatomy is a basic science which plays an important role in physical examination, confirming diagnosis, and understanding the condition of a patient. Well understanding of anatomy is a great help in any medical practice. Albeit, due to overwhelming anatomical materials, they have to be securely and thoroughly sorted and selected to obtain the effective materials for medical students. This study was aimed to achieve the consensus of anatomy experts about the core anatomical materials of the digestive tract. This was a qualitative study using the Delphi method. Panel, chosen by using purposive sampling, consisted of 20 anatomy lecturers from several medical faculties in Indonesia. The Delphi test was performed in two cycles and the concensus had to obtain 80%. The results showed that the core anatomical material of digestive tract consisted of 117 topics in the first quetionnaire (1st Delphi cycle), and then 9 topics was added and became 126 topics. Of the 126 topics, the experts agreed that there were 87 topics (69%) that had to be studied by the medical students (2nd Delphi cycle). Conclusion: The Indonesian anatomical experts agreed that there were 69% of the core anatomical materials of the digestive tract had to be studied by the medical students.Keywords: anatomical material, digestive tract, expert consensusAbstrak: Anatomi merupakan ilmu dasar yang berguna untuk menjadi landasan bagi dokter dalam melakukan pemeriksaan fisik, diagnosis dan juga memahami kondisi penyakit pasien.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan konsensus dari pakar anatomi di Indonesia mengenai materi inti anatomi sistem pencernaan. Jenis penelitian ialah kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode Delphi. Panel dipilih dengan purposive sampling sejumlah 20 orang dosen anatomi dari berbagai Fakultas Kedokteran di Indonesia. Delphi dilaksanakan dalam dua putaran. Besar konsensus yang ditetapkan ialah 80%. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan materi inti anatomi sistem pencernaan sejumlah 117 topik pada kuesioner awal (Delphi putaran pertama) menjadi bertambah 9 materi menjadi 126 topik. Dari 126 topik ini para ahli sepakat terdapat 87 topik (69%) yang harus dipelajari oleh mahasiswa kedokteran (Delphi putaran kedua). Simpulan: Konsensus pakar anatomi Indonesia sepakat bahwa sebanyak 69% materi inti dari seluruh materi anatomi sistem pencernaan perlu dipelajari oleh mahasiswa pendidikan dokter.Kata kunci: materi anatomi, sistem pencernaan, konsensus pakar
