In the context of “5G + medicine”, the development of telemedicine, emergency rescue, intelligent analysis and diagnosis has opened up new horizons for clinical medicine. Facing the constant impact of high technology, the focus of medical education should be on the cultivation of students’ integrated medical view, critical thinking, communication abilities and skills, and creativity. The “5G + education” model will be presented by means of virtual reality, artificial intelligence, cloud computing and other technologies, providing a new direction for the development of medical education. This article summarizes the key points and prospects of medical education under 5G technology in order to provide a reference for the field of medical education to adapt to the changes in the 5G era.
