What are the ethical implications of using anatomical resources created through Nazi human experimentation, such as the Pernkopf atlas, in modern medical education and practice?

The Pernkopf anatomical atlas, renowned for its artistic quality and scientific accuracy, was created using the bodies of hundreds of political prisoners subjected to Nazi medical atrocities. These experiments, including inoculations, phenol injections, and skin grafts, were conducted on Jews, political prisoners, and the disabled. The atlas's continued use in anatomy raises ethical concerns.
