Rachana Sharir, the Ayurvedic science of human anatomy, forms the structural foundation of Ayurvedic education and clinical practice. Rooted in classical texts, it presents a holistic understanding of the human body by integrating physical structures with functional, developmental, and philosophical principles. In recent years, the increasing emphasis on evidence-based traditional medicine has generated renewed interest in anatomical research within Ayurveda. The present narrative review aims to explore and systematically analyze the major research opportunities in Rachana Sharir, highlighting areas such as comparative anatomy, cadaveric studies, embryology, Marma Sharir, and educational research. Classical Ayurvedic literature and contemporary academic sources were reviewed to identify research gaps and future directions. The review concludes that Rachana Sharir offers significant potential for interdisciplinary research, scientific validation, and integrative healthcare, although challenges related to standardization and infrastructure remain.
